Overview

About 25 High Street

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

25 High Street is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Markyate, St. Albans, St Albans (AL3 8PG). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 892 sq ft) and council tax band D. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. The latest certificate (October 2009) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from October 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Last sold in July 2018, so it's been off the market for around 8 years. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. At 83 m² it's 17.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (100 m² median across 13 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs). Across 1996–2018, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £429,000 is 12.9% above the 2018 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£426/sq ft) was about 25.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
