About 5 Bath Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Bath Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Chester (CH1 1QL). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since September 2015. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 3-band jump.
