23 Long Meadow is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Markyate, St. Albans, St Albans (AL3 8JW). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2016, 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.
Sold September 2021 for £410,000. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One planning record on file: a garage conversion approved in 2014. Past consents include a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2000–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.1% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£349/sq ft) was about 48.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
Recommended upgrades on file would lift this property by multiple EPC bands.
