About 2 Ellis House

2 Ellis House is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in St Albans (AL1 2AR). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2023) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since October 2010.
