Overview

About 29 Upton Drive

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

29 Upton Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Upton, Chester, Chester (CH2 1BY). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 1998–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £264,000 sits 53.5% above the 2017 sale of £172,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in April 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years. At 78 m² it's 18.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (96 m² median across 9 EPCs).
