Overview

About 17 Canterbury Court

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

17 Canterbury Court is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in St Albans (AL1 4DX). It has a recorded floor area of 43 m² (around 463 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. At 43 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 18 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 41–59 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (March 2017) shows a C (score 71). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84). Main heating runs on electricity.

Held since June 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2000–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £269,000 sits 64% above the 2008 sale of £164,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£354/sq ft) was about 22.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
