Overview

About 9 Admirals Close

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

9 Admirals Close is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Colney Heath, St. Albans, St Albans (AL4 0QD). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 118 m² the property is well over the postcode median (45 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.

Today's modelled estimate of £537,000 is 25.6% above the 2019 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£337/sq ft) was about 43% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £427,500 in November 2019.

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 9 Admirals Close is modelled from its 118 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in AL4 0QD. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 9 Admirals Close. 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 9 Admirals Close was lodged in May 2015 at band D and expired in May 2025, 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 9 Admirals Close. 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 8 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from AL4 0QD, not by walking route.
Council tax band
9 Admirals Close is in council tax band D. 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.
