Overview

About 3a

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

3a is a mid-terrace house in St Albans (AL1 1TN). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1453 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2023) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

Held since November 1998 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £558,000 sits 426.4% above the 1998 sale of £106,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£73/sq ft) was about 64.3% below the postcode norm. At 135 m² it's 23.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (110 m² median across 18 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs).
