Get started49a is an end-of-terrace house in Hitchin (SG4 9NR). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 648 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. At 60 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 28 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 60–182 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 28 units on file. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 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. Today's modelled estimate of £182,000 sits 69.3% above the 2009 sale of £107,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£166/sq ft) was about 29.3% below the postcode norm. At 60 m² it sits well below the postcode median (93 m² across 27 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
Recommended upgrades on file would lift this property by multiple EPC bands.
