Overview

About 7 Bell View

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

7 Bell View is a four-bedroom detached house in St Albans (AL4 0SQ). It has a recorded floor area of 107 m² (around 1152 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (August 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Untraded for 27 years, with the last transfer in June 1999. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 107 m² the property is well over the postcode median (76 m² across 28 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £647,000 sits 259.5% above the 1999 sale of £179,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£156/sq ft) was about 49.5% below the postcode norm.
