About 23 Brooke Avenue

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

23 Brooke Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Chester (CH2 1HQ). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1163 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Last changed hands 11 years ago, in August 2015. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1995–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £392,000 is 45.2% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£232/sq ft) was about 16.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
