About 10 Rakeway
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
10 Rakeway is a property in Saughall, Chester, Chester (CH1 6AZ). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 744 sq ft) and council tax band B. At 69 m² this is the 32nd smallest of 56 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 46–127 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 56 units on file. The latest certificate (August 2011) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The latest certificate is from August 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since September 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2000–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 37.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £217,000 is 21.9% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£239/sq ft) was about 86.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 10 Rakeway is modelled from its 69 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CH1 6AZ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 10 Rakeway. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 10 Rakeway was lodged in August 2011 at band C and expired in August 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 10 Rakeway. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 6 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CH1 6AZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 10 Rakeway is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
