Overview

About 13 Ridge Street

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

13 Ridge Street is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Watford (WD24 6BL). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

Today's modelled estimate of £390,000 sits 71.1% above the 2014 sale of £228,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£321/sq ft) was about 24.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Last changed hands 12 years ago, in August 2014.
