Overview

About 31 Abbey Avenue

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

31 Abbey Avenue is a three-bedroom detached house in St Albans (AL3 4BH). It has a recorded floor area of 112 m² (around 1207 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (July 2010) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 67). The latest certificate is from July 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 16 years, with the last transfer in October 2010. At 112 m² the property is well over the postcode median (79 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £845,000 sits 53% above the 2010 sale of £552,400. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£458/sq ft) was about 71.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2011.
