How the estimate is made

The estimate for 3 Dammersey Close is modelled from its 85 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in AL3 8JS. 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.

Overview

About 3 Dammersey Close

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

3 Dammersey Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Markyate, St. Albans, St Albans (AL3 8JS). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2025. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Across 2014–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £572,000 is 16.5% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£537/sq ft) was about 70.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold May 2021 for £491,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 3 Dammersey Close is modelled from its 85 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in AL3 8JS. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 3 Dammersey Close. 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 3 Dammersey Close was lodged in January 2014 at band E and expired in January 2024, 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. 1 application is matched to 3 Dammersey Close. 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 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from AL3 8JS, not by walking route.
Council tax band
3 Dammersey Close is in council tax band E. 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.
