Overview

About 8 Westland Close

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

8 Westland Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Leavesden, Watford, Watford (WD25 7GH). It has a recorded floor area of 103 m² (around 1107 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows a C (score 74). The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since March 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 2002–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £601,000 sits 51.4% above the 2009 sale of £397,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
