Get started13 Broadmead is a two-bedroom detached house in Hitchin (SG4 9LU). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in November 2013 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
At 72 m² it sits well below the postcode median (105 m² across 17 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £507,000 is 47% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£445/sq ft) was about 41.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in June 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2016.
