Overview

About 14a

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

14a is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Watford (WD25 0DN). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 597 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. At 55 m² this is the 11th smallest of 25 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 51–101 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 25 units on file. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (February 2011) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 1997–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £302,000 sits 59% above the 2012 sale of £189,950. On the market in March 2012 and unlisted since — roughly 14 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2013.

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 14a is modelled from its 55 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WD25 0DN. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 14a. 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 14a was lodged in February 2011 at band D and expired in February 2021, 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 14a. 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 24 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WD25 0DN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
14a is in council tax band C. 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.
