Overview

About 9 Colney Heath Lane

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

9 Colney Heath Lane is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in St Albans (AL4 0SY). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 965 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2012) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from January 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory and a loft.

Across 1996–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £661,000 sits 55% above the 2012 sale of £426,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£442/sq ft) was about 45.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 14 years ago, in September 2012. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs).
