Overview

About 5 Henrys Grant

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

5 Henrys Grant is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in St Albans (AL1 1RY). It has a recorded floor area of 44 m² (around 474 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. At 44 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 15 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 41–60 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (August 2021) shows a C (score 74). The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since June 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Good.

It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2004–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 0.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £294,000 sits 53.1% above the 2009 sale of £192,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£405/sq ft) was about 20% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
