Overview

About 1 Rookery Close

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

1 Rookery Close is an end-of-terrace house in Walkern, Stevenage, Stevenage (SG2 7NL). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band E. The latest certificate (December 2008) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). The latest certificate is from December 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since April 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 90 m² it sits well below the postcode median (130 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £463,000 is 45.8% above the 2009 sale price.
