Overview

About 3 Osborne Road

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

3 Osborne Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Watford (WD24 7BA). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £434,000 sits 73.6% above the 2014 sale of £250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£287/sq ft) was about 25.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). Last sold in March 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
