About 142a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
142a is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Sandridge, St. Albans, St Albans (AL4 9LL). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows a C (score 70). The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in October 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £497,000 sits 125.9% above the 2009 sale of £220,000.
