Overview

About 32 Neston Road

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

32 Neston Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Watford (WD24 7BW). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (March 2020) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since February 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2003–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £530,000 sits 135.6% above the 2009 sale of £225,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£218/sq ft) was about 24.3% below the postcode norm.
