Overview

About 4 George Street

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

4 George Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Markyate, St. Albans, St Albans (AL3 8JX). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Period features are noted in the property record. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (April 2012) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Sold December 2020 for £325,000. Across the public record there are 7 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. Across 1997–2020, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £369,000 is 13.5% above the 2020 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£457/sq ft) was about 87.5% 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 4 George Street is modelled from its 66 m² EPC floor area, its 7 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in AL3 8JX. 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. 7 sales are recorded for 4 George 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 4 George Street was lodged in April 2012 at band D and expired in April 2022, 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. None is matched to 4 George 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 8JX, not by walking route.
Council tax band
4 George Street is in council tax band C. 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.
