Overview

About Lily House

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

Lily House is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Redbourn, St. Albans, St Albans (AL3 7FD). It has a recorded floor area of 44 m² (around 474 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 44 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across Lily House (44–54 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (April 2012) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 65). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from April 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since November 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £513,000 is 10.3% above the 2007 sale price. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count.

How to read this page

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 Lily House is modelled from its 44 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in AL3 7FD. 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 Lily House. 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 Lily House was lodged in April 2012 at band E and expired in April 2022, 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 Lily House. 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 3 schools and 29 stops listed are measured in a straight line from AL3 7FD, not by walking route.
