Overview

About Midsummer Lodge

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

Midsummer Lodge is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Watford (WD25 0AF). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band D. The property has an EV charger on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a loft. At 58 m² this is the 7th smallest of 14 units on EPC record in Midsummer Lodge, where floor areas span 54–63 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (July 2012) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (March 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The latest certificate is from July 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On the market in September 2014 and unlisted since — roughly 12 years. Across 2010–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £298,000 is 21.1% above the 2014 sale price.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Midsummer Lodge is modelled from its 58 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WD25 0AF. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for Midsummer Lodge. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Midsummer Lodge was lodged in July 2012 at band C and expired in July 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Midsummer Lodge. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 23 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WD25 0AF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Midsummer Lodge is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
