Overview

About 9 Cranbrook Drive

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

9 Cranbrook Drive is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in St Albans (AL4 0SR). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 749 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2008) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from December 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £408,000 sits 133.1% above the 2009 sale of £175,000.
