Overview

About 4 Church Street

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

4 Church Street is an end-of-terrace house in Chester (CH1 3JD). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 570 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (March 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since February 1998 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £134,000 sits 596.1% above the 1998 sale of £19,250.
