About 9 Archer Road
9 Archer Road is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Stevenage (SG1 5HB). It has a recorded floor area of 43 m² (around 463 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. At 43 m² this is the 11th smallest of 45 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 35–120 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom.

Held since October 2007 — that's 19 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 43 m² it sits well below the postcode median (86 m² across 44 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2000–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £152,000 is 30.5% above the 2007 sale price.
