Overview

About 12 Avalon Close

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

12 Avalon Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Watford (WD25 9TW). It has a recorded floor area of 274 m² (around 2949 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (August 2016) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (January 2016); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 274 m² the property is well over the postcode median (113 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £950,000 sits 72.7% above the 2016 sale of £550,000. Last sold in March 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.

How to read this page

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 12 Avalon Close is modelled from its 274 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WD25 9TW. 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 12 Avalon Close. 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 12 Avalon Close was lodged in August 2016 at band E and expired in August 2026, 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. None is matched to 12 Avalon Close. 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 16 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WD25 9TW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
12 Avalon Close is in council tax band F. 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.
