12 Chalfont Place is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in St Albans (AL1 3UQ). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. At 63 m² this is the 13th smallest of 15 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 37–67 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (78 versus a worst of 61). Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (July 2023) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band.
It hasn't traded since May 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 63 m² the property is well over the postcode median (43 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £329,000 sits 324.5% above the 1997 sale of £77,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£114/sq ft) was about 65.2% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2020.
