10 Birchwood Close is a semi-detached house in Hatfield (AL10 0PP). It has a recorded floor area of 115 m² (around 1238 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since February 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £492,000 sits 85.7% above the 2007 sale of £265,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension, a conservatory and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 115 m² it's 27.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (90 m² median across 35 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs).
10 Birchwood Close's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.
