About Chestnut House
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Chestnut House is a detached house in Saughall, Chester, Chester (CH1 6EN). It has a recorded floor area of 198 m² (around 2131 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2013) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since April 2004 — that's 22 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 198 m² the property is well over the postcode median (89 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £757,000 sits 78.1% above the 2004 sale of £425,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 Chestnut House is modelled from its 198 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CH1 6EN. 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. 1 sale is recorded for Chestnut House. 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 Chestnut House was lodged in January 2013 at band D and expired in January 2023, 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. 1 application is matched to Chestnut House. 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 4 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CH1 6EN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Chestnut House is in council tax band E. 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.
