About 5 Eaton Road
5 Eaton Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in St Albans (AL1 4UD). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2020) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since February 2010. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since November 1995, a hold of 31 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. Today's modelled estimate of £624,000 sits 625.6% above the 1995 sale of £86,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£96/sq ft) was about 79.5% below the postcode norm. At 83 m² it sits well below the postcode median (122 m² across 6 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
