Overview

About 38 Butterwick

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

38 Butterwick is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Watford (WD25 9SD). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. At 57 m² this is the 5th smallest of 33 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 44–110 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £341,000 is 13.7% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£489/sq ft) was about 81.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 57 m² it's 26.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (78 m² median across 32 EPCs). Last sale on file: £300,000 in October 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 38 Butterwick is modelled from its 57 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WD25 9SD. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 38 Butterwick. 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 38 Butterwick was lodged in August 2013 at band C and expired in August 2023, 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. None is matched to 38 Butterwick. 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 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WD25 9SD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
38 Butterwick 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.
