Flat is a two-bedroom detached house in Saughall, Chester, Chester (CH1 6DH). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2023) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since October 2008. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Average; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). At 76 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 12 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 60–242 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 12 units on file.
Held since June 2008 — that's 18 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. At 76 m² it sits well below the postcode median (125 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£352/sq ft) was about 74.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
