46 Beech Road, Watford, WD24 6NY
About 46 Beech Road
46 Beech Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Watford (WD24 6NY). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a conservatory and outbuildings. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (June 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
4 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £610,000 is 10.5% above the 2022 sale price.

That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
