1a, Alma Road, St Albans, AL1 3AR

The latest sale landed in the post-pandemic price surge — useful context when reading the figure.

1a ranks among the most efficient homes in the postcode for energy use.

How the estimate is made

The estimate for 1a is modelled from its 213 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in AL1 3AR. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

Where sold prices come from

Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 1a. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

Reading the EPC

Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1a was lodged in March 2018 at band B and is valid until March 2028. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.

Planning records

Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 1a. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.

Area figures

Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 36 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from AL1 3AR, not by walking route.
