Overview

About 15 Lowestoft Road

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

15 Lowestoft Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Watford (WD24 5AX). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2018) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in September 2016 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

It hasn't traded since January 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £341,000 sits 520.6% above the 1998 sale of £54,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£69/sq ft) was about 69.3% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs).
