4 Alban Court is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in St Albans (AL1 5DN). It has a recorded floor area of 46 m² (around 491 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C.

Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). The latest certificate is from January 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
