About 3 Austin Villas

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

3 Austin Villas is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Watford (WD25 0GD). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D.
