Overview

About 5 Brentwood Road

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

5 Brentwood Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Blacon, Chester, Chester (CH1 5DT). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (September 2011); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.

Held since April 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £143,000 is 40.2% above the 2007 sale price.
