About Stumblewood
Stumblewood is a detached house in Ansty, Haywards Heath, Haywards Heath (RH17 5AS). It has a recorded floor area of 155 m² (around 1668 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 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. At 155 m² it's 25% larger than the typical home in the postcode (124 m² median across 15 EPCs). Across 2006–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 16.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £775,000 is 40.9% above the 2007 sale price.
