About 18 Penn Road
18 Penn Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Stevenage (SG1 1HY). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2022) shows a C (score 71). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84).
Held since May 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 84 m² the property is well over the postcode median (43 m² across 20 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £314,000 sits 90.3% above the 2008 sale of £165,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£182/sq ft) was about 34.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
