About 23 Hayward Close
23 Hayward Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Stevenage (SG1 5BS). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band C. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a conservatory. The latest certificate (July 2019) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 89).
Held since February 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. Today's modelled estimate of £383,000 sits 59.6% above the 2008 sale of £240,000. At 76 m² it's 28.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (107 m² median across 20 EPCs).
