About 21 Cornwall Road

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

21 Cornwall Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in St Albans (AL1 1SQ). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 971 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2011) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from March 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
