About 9 Bovingdon Crescent
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
9 Bovingdon Crescent is a five-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Watford (WD25 9RA). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1163 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (December 2015) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since May 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 9 Bovingdon Crescent is modelled from its 108 m² EPC floor area, its 5 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WD25 9RA. 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. 5 sales are recorded for 9 Bovingdon Crescent. 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 9 Bovingdon Crescent was lodged in December 2015 at band D and expired in December 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 9 Bovingdon Crescent. 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 20 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WD25 9RA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 9 Bovingdon Crescent is in council tax band D. 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.
