About 35 Chiltern Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
35 Chiltern Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in St Albans (AL4 9SW). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a C (score 70). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 22 years, with the last transfer in July 2004. Today's modelled estimate of £457,000 sits 143.7% above the 2004 sale of £187,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£198/sq ft) was about 44.8% below the postcode norm.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 35 Chiltern Road is modelled from its 88 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in AL4 9SW. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 35 Chiltern Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 35 Chiltern Road was lodged in September 2015 at band C and expired in September 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 35 Chiltern Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 24 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from AL4 9SW, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 35 Chiltern Road is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
