Overview

About 20 Vicarage Gardens

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

20 Vicarage Gardens is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Flamstead, St. Albans, St Albans (AL3 8EF). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 105), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since September 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. Across 2006–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 22% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £380,000 sits 52% above the 2007 sale of £250,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
