About 13 The Thrums
13 The Thrums is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Watford (WD24 6DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 93 m² (around 1001 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since March 2009. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
Today's modelled estimate of £510,000 sits 59.4% above the 2015 sale of £320,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£320/sq ft) was about 38.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). Last changed hands 11 years ago, in September 2015.
