Overview

About 4 Alban Court

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

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. At 46 m² this is the 5th smallest of 10 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 41–50 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (January 2010) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. 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.
