Overview

About 13 Albert Street

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

13 Albert Street is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Markyate, St. Albans, St Albans (AL3 8HY). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1397 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include a basement. The latest certificate (April 2011) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from April 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 130 m² the property is well over the postcode median (79 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Most recent transfer: August 2020 at £535,000. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. 11 planning records sit against the property, 10 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include new windows and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1998–2020, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £643,000 is 20.2% above the 2020 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£383/sq ft) was about 38.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 13 Albert Street is modelled from its 130 m² EPC floor area, its 5 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in AL3 8HY. 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. 5 sales are recorded for 13 Albert Street. 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 13 Albert Street was lodged in April 2011 at band E and expired in April 2021, 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. 11 applications are matched to 13 Albert Street. 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 4 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from AL3 8HY, not by walking route.
Council tax band
13 Albert Street is in council tax band F. 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.
