About 23 Gisburne Way
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
23 Gisburne Way is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Watford (WD24 5BA). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows a C (score 70). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
At 92 m² the property is well over the postcode median (61 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On the market in June 2014 and unlisted since — roughly 12 years. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2021. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1996–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £476,000 is 32.6% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£363/sq ft) was about 55.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 23 Gisburne Way is modelled from its 92 m² EPC floor area, its 5 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WD24 5BA. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 5 sales are recorded for 23 Gisburne Way. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 23 Gisburne Way was lodged in February 2014 at band C and expired in February 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 23 Gisburne Way. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 30 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WD24 5BA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 23 Gisburne Way is in council tax band E. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
