9 Broom Close is a five-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Hatfield (AL10 9DL). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2019) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in November 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump.
Held since July 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £440,000 sits 556.7% above the 1997 sale of £67,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£62/sq ft) was about 70.3% below the postcode norm. At 101 m² it's 26.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (80 m² median across 29 EPCs).
