Overview

About 5 Chesswood Close

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

5 Chesswood Close is a two-bedroom detached house in Worthing (BN11 2AJ). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 85 m² the property is well over the postcode median (64 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2005–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £378,000 sits 51.2% above the 2014 sale of £250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£273/sq ft) was about 57.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in February 2014, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 5 Chesswood Close is modelled from its 85 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BN11 2AJ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 5 Chesswood Close. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 5 Chesswood Close was lodged in July 2013 at band D and expired in July 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 5 Chesswood Close. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 17 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN11 2AJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
5 Chesswood Close is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
