Overview

About Avondale Court

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

Avondale Court is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in St Albans (AL1 3NU). It has a recorded floor area of 54 m² (around 581 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. At 54 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across Avondale Court (54–64 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since November 2005, a hold of 21 years that's notably long for the area. Across 1996–2005, sale prices on this property compounded at 12% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £355,000 sits 79.7% above the 2005 sale of £197,500. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Avondale Court is modelled from its 54 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in AL1 3NU. 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. 2 sales are recorded for Avondale Court. 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 Avondale Court was lodged in August 2014 at band D and expired in August 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 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 Avondale Court. 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 35 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from AL1 3NU, not by walking route.
Council tax band
Avondale Court is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
