About 45 Ellis Fields
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
45 Ellis Fields is a five-bedroom detached house in St Albans (AL3 6BG). It has a recorded floor area of 289 m² (around 3111 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (August 2010) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from August 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 289 m² the property is well over the postcode median (187 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 45 Ellis Fields is modelled from its 289 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in AL3 6BG. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 45 Ellis Fields. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 45 Ellis Fields was lodged in August 2010 at band D and expired in August 2020, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 45 Ellis Fields. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 28 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from AL3 6BG, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 45 Ellis Fields is in council tax band G. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
