Overview

About 3 Countess View

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

3 Countess View is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Chester (CH2 1BR). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 754 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2010) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The latest certificate is from March 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since October 1996 — that's 30 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £240,000 sits 275% above the 1996 sale of £64,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£85/sq ft) was about 46.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2012. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 70 m² it's 22.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (57 m² median across 25 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 3 Countess View is modelled from its 70 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CH2 1BR. 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 3 Countess View. 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 3 Countess View was lodged in March 2010 at band C and expired in March 2020, 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 3 Countess View. 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 20 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CH2 1BR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
3 Countess View is in council tax band C. 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.
