The property's advertised price of £750,000 is considered well-positioned within the current market. Its key strengths include an excellent location and high environmental ratings, both of which are top-tier when compared to similar properties. Furthermore, it offers a desirable configuration of four bedrooms and a standout three bathrooms, the latter being a premium feature. The internal space is generous, and the property benefits from a good level of modernisation. While an energy rating is not available, this is not factored negatively. Compared to other four-bedroom homes, including one at the same price point with fewer bathrooms and a slightly less prime location (albeit newer and larger), this property's combination of superior location and additional bathroom capacity provides strong justification for its valuation. The overall assessment suggests the property is competitively priced, with potential to achieve a figure slightly above its current asking price due to these compelling attributes.
The property is on average £17,682 less expensive than similar properties in the area

Environmental Factors
Direct adjacency to Clarence Park, a large and well-maintained public park, providing excellent recreational access, pleasant green views for some properties, and a buffer from urban noise.
Location on Beresford Road, a residential side street, which typically means significantly less traffic volume and associated noise compared to main arterial roads in St Albans.
Potential for some ambient traffic noise, particularly from the A1057 (Hatfield Road) to the north-east, which could affect properties at the eastern end of Beresford Road more noticeably.
