About 140 St Albans Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
140 St Albans Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Sandridge, St. Albans, St Albans (AL4 9LL). It has a recorded floor area of 127 m² (around 1367 sq ft). The latest certificate (June 2016) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 127 m² the property is well over the postcode median (83 m² across 23 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £796,000 is 13.3% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£514/sq ft) was about 86.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in September 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
