Overview

About 3a

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

3a is a three-bedroom detached house in St Albans (AL1 2NE). It has a recorded floor area of 126 m² (around 1356 sq ft) and council tax band F. The latest certificate (July 2012) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from July 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £741,000 sits 51.2% above the 2014 sale of £490,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£361/sq ft) was about 41.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 126 m² it's 17.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (152 m² median across 9 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 89% of similar EPCs). Last sold in August 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2012.
