About 5 Alban Court

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

5 Alban Court is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in St Albans (AL1 5DN). It has a recorded floor area of 43 m² (around 463 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. At 43 m² this is the 4th 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 bottom.
