About 35 Castle Road

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

35 Castle Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in St Albans (AL1 5DQ). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an F (score 31), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
