Overview

About 21 Bucknalls Lane

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

21 Bucknalls Lane is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Watford (WD25 9NE). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 72 m² it sits well below the postcode median (127 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £593,000 is 27.5% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£600/sq ft) was about 126.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in January 2016, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
