Overview

About 20 Ashdales

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

20 Ashdales is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in St Albans (AL1 2RA). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since May 2011. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 64 m² it's 25.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (51 m² median across 17 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs).
