About 130 St Albans Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
130 St Albans Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Sandridge, St. Albans, St Albans (AL4 9LL). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 919 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 55), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 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. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2002–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £658,000 sits 68.7% above the 2009 sale of £390,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£424/sq ft) was about 53.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 3 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 0 refused.
