Overview

About 13 St Barts Close

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

13 St Barts Close is a four-bedroom detached house in St Albans (AL4 0BY). It has a recorded floor area of 143 m² (around 1539 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band G. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (August 2025) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band.

Held since May 1998 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £985,000 sits 245.6% above the 1998 sale of £285,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£185/sq ft) was about 30.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2025. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 143 m² it's 19% larger than the typical home in the postcode (120 m² median across 10 EPCs).
