About St Albans

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

St Albans is a detached house in Poolsbrook, Chesterfield, Chesterfield (S43 3LP). It has a recorded floor area of 387 m² (around 4166 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 387 m² the property is well over the postcode median (50 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £582,000 sits 60.3% above the 2016 sale of £363,000. Last changed hands 10 years ago, in August 2016.
