Overview

About 1 Capenhurst Lane

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

1 Capenhurst Lane is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Capenhurst, Chester, Chester (CH1 6HE). It has a recorded floor area of 123 m² (around 1323 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2011) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from February 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.

Held since April 2011 — that's 15 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £293,000 sits 102.1% above the 2011 sale of £145,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£110/sq ft) was about 59.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2015. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 123 m² it's 22.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (159 m² median across 20 EPCs).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Capenhurst Lane is modelled from its 123 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CH1 6HE. 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 1 Capenhurst Lane. 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 1 Capenhurst Lane was lodged in February 2011 at band D and expired in February 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. 1 application is matched to 1 Capenhurst Lane. 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 8 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CH1 6HE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Capenhurst Lane is in council tax band D. 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.
