Overview

About 43 Chestnut Walk

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

43 Chestnut Walk is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Watford (WD24 6NS). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 5 certificates since August 2013. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Good to Very Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

2 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 0 refused, 1 pending. An active application for an extension is awaiting a decision. Today's modelled estimate of £496,000 sits 79.7% above the 2013 sale of £276,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£291/sq ft) was about 31.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in November 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
