About 9 Brockett Close
9 Brockett Close is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Welwyn Garden City (AL8 7BN). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1458 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2012) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from February 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. The home occupies a corner plot.
At 135 m² the property is well over the postcode median (94 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 27 planning records sit against the property, 20 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include tree works, an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. Across 2007–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £821,000 is 48.7% above the 2012 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£379/sq ft) was about 16.2% below the postcode norm. Last sold in November 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
