Your note and figure are shown publicly on this page.
The estimate for 19a is modelled from its 80 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in AL1 1PD. 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.

19a has no Land Registry sales on file, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands since registration began.
That can mean the property has never traded since the registry began publishing in 1995, was a new build that hasn't been registered yet, or is held in the same hands long-term.
Median price across the last 5 sales in AL1 1PD: £538,800 (2025–2023).

19a is an end-of-terrace house in St Albans (AL1 1PD). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2020) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since October 2008. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. At 80 m² this is the 20th smallest of 27 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 37–130 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 27 units on file.
At 80 m² the property is well over the postcode median (55 m² across 26 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2006.
Recommended upgrades on file would lift this property by multiple EPC bands.
