Overview

About 1 Chestnut Walk

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

1 Chestnut Walk is a four-bedroom detached house in Welwyn (AL6 0SB). It has a recorded floor area of 214 m² (around 2303 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in July 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 214 m² the property is well over the postcode median (163 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £879,000 sits 87% above the 2009 sale of £470,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£204/sq ft) was about 32.9% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
