Overview

About Brooklen

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

Brooklen is a detached house in Redbourn, St. Albans, St Albans (AL3 7NH). It has a recorded floor area of 129 m² (around 1386 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (December 2011) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from December 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £688,000 is 14.5% below the 2015 sale of £805,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£581/sq ft) was about 147% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 5 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in June 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
