Overview

About 5 Abbots Knoll

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

5 Abbots Knoll is a four-bedroom detached house in Chester (CH1 4GA). It has a recorded floor area of 131 m² (around 1410 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2013) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump.
