Overview

About Flat

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

Flat is a mid-terrace house in Chester (CH1 4EE). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (October 2019) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (October 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). At 63 m² this is the 6th smallest of 18 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 39–155 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 18 units on file.

Today's modelled estimate of £158,000 is 40.4% below the 2021 sale of £265,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£391/sq ft) was about 74.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Most recent transfer: November 2021 at £265,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
