Overview

About 7 Berry Avenue

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

7 Berry Avenue is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Watford (WD24 6RU). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 570 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2023) shows a C (score 71). When first surveyed in September 2013 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good.

Held since March 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2000–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £289,000 sits 64.2% above the 2007 sale of £176,000. At 53 m² it sits well below the postcode median (86 m² across 22 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 73% of similar EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2012.
