Overview

About 62 Sheepcot Lane

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

62 Sheepcot Lane is a three-bedroom detached house in Watford (WD25 0DG). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 984 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows an F (score 34), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 47). The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since October 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 91 m² it sits well below the postcode median (137 m² across 6 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £546,000 sits 95% above the 2009 sale of £280,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£285/sq ft) was about 25.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Method

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 62 Sheepcot Lane is modelled from its 91 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WD25 0DG. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 62 Sheepcot Lane. 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 62 Sheepcot Lane was lodged in May 2009 at band F and expired in May 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 62 Sheepcot Lane. 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 25 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WD25 0DG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
62 Sheepcot Lane is in council tax band E. 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.
