Overview

About 13 Catham Close

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

13 Catham Close is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in St Albans (AL1 5QT). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 934 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

It hasn't traded since July 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £456,000 sits 102.7% above the 2009 sale of £225,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£241/sq ft) was about 25.1% below the postcode norm. At 87 m² it's 15.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (75 m² median across 27 EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2022.
