7 Clifton Street is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in St Albans (AL1 3RY). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 643 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 56). The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2001–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £503,000 sits 73.4% above the 2009 sale of £290,000. At 60 m² it sits well below the postcode median (86 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 6 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused.
7 Clifton Street's EPC is over a decade old — improvements since won't be reflected.
