Overview

About 4 Dawson Drive

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

4 Dawson Drive is a three-bedroom detached house in Chester (CH2 1AL). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (December 2018) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

It hasn't traded since September 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1999–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £369,000 sits 67.7% above the 2009 sale of £220,000.
