Overview

About 51 Woodside

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

51 Woodside is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Watford (WD24 6QT). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (November 2013); 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 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
