About 3 Rookery Close
3 Rookery Close is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Walkern, Stevenage, Stevenage (SG2 7NL). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1399 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2025) shows a C (score 79), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88). Other recorded features include a basement. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a corner plot.
It hasn't traded since December 2008, a hold of 17 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 130 m² the property is well over the postcode median (90 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £548,000 sits 76.8% above the 2008 sale of £310,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£222/sq ft) was about 32.4% below the postcode norm.
