Overview

About 5 Garrard Way

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

5 Garrard Way is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wheathampstead, St. Albans, St Albans (AL4 8PE). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2025) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since December 1997 — 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 £584,000 sits 430.9% above the 1997 sale of £110,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£112/sq ft) was about 62.4% below the postcode norm.
