About 13 Cape Road

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

13 Cape Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in St Albans (AL1 5DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 89).
