About 17 Church Field

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

17 Church Field is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Saffron Walden (CB11 4BG). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Today's modelled estimate of £331,000 sits 91.3% above the 2005 sale of £173,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£247/sq ft) was about 34.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
