Overview

About 5 Brookhill

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

5 Brookhill is a four-bedroom detached house in Stevenage (SG2 8RR). It has a recorded floor area of 132 m² (around 1421 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (December 2015) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 68), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe and attached land beyond the plot. Period features are noted in the property record. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 132 m² it sits well below the postcode median (206 m² across 7 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. Today's modelled estimate of £769,000 sits 50.2% above the 2016 sale of £512,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£360/sq ft) was about 55.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last changed hands 10 years ago, in May 2016.
