Overview

About 8 Ashby Gardens

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

8 Ashby Gardens is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in St Albans (AL1 2NP). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 778 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2010) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from September 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in February 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1999–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £452,000 sits 84.5% above the 2007 sale of £245,000.
