Overview

About 17 Alexandra Road

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

17 Alexandra Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in St Albans (AL1 3AU). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 708 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2010) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in February 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good. The latest certificate is from March 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.

It hasn't traded since October 2004, a hold of 22 years that's notably long for the area. Across 1998–2004, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £569,000 sits 127.6% above the 2004 sale of £250,000. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 71% of similar EPCs).
