Overview

About 82 Sandpit Lane

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

82 Sandpit Lane is a four-bedroom detached house in St Albans (AL4 0BX). It has a recorded floor area of 138 m² (around 1485 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since September 2013. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Today's modelled estimate of £1,207,000 sits 53.8% above the 2014 sale of £785,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£528/sq ft) was about 62.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 138 m² it's 23.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (180 m² median across 14 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). On the market in March 2014 and unlisted since — roughly 12 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2018.
