How the estimate is made

The estimate for 25 Church Lane is modelled from its 193 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CH2 1DJ. 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.

Overview

About 25 Church Lane

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

25 Church Lane is a four-bedroom detached house in Upton, Chester, Chester (CH2 1DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 193 m² (around 2077 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows a C (score 71). When first surveyed in December 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Across 2011–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £825,000 is 25% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£318/sq ft) was about 17.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in July 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.

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 25 Church Lane is modelled from its 193 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CH2 1DJ. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 25 Church 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 25 Church Lane was lodged in June 2016 at band C and expired in June 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 25 Church 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 15 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CH2 1DJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
25 Church Lane is in council tax band G. 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.
