Overview

About 6 Oswald Road

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

6 Oswald Road is a five-bedroom mid-terrace house in St Albans (AL1 3AQ). It has a recorded floor area of 133 m² (around 1432 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2012) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a loft. Period features are noted in the property record. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Untraded for 31 years, with the last transfer in June 1995. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 133 m² the property is well over the postcode median (94 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £790,000 sits 1216.7% above the 1995 sale of £60,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£42/sq ft) was about 87.7% below the postcode norm.
