Overview

About 13 Brighton Road

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

13 Brighton Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Watford (WD24 5HN). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1011 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2011) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 60). The latest certificate is from November 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since February 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2005–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £426,000 sits 85.2% above the 2007 sale of £230,000. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 94 m² it's 25.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (75 m² median across 31 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs).
