Overview

About 1a Ardentinny

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

1a Ardentinny is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in St Albans (AL1 3BZ). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 570 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. Tenure is freehold. At 53 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 11 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 49–65 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (April 2017) shows a C (score 71).

It hasn't traded since August 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £342,000 sits 52% above the 2008 sale of £225,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£394/sq ft) was about 33.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
