Overview

About 3 Chestnut Walk

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

3 Chestnut Walk is a semi-detached house in Watford (WD24 6NS). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in September 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since April 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £463,000 sits 101.3% above the 2010 sale of £230,000. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2018.
