Get started16 Baristow Close is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Chester (CH2 2EA). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1023 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
It hasn't traded since September 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Sale prices here have outpaced England HPI: 10.2% per year against 0% for the wider region. Today's modelled estimate of £200,000 is 33.4% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£147/sq ft) was about 30.6% below the postcode norm. At 95 m² the property is well over the postcode median (61 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: a garage conversion approved in 2008. Past consents include a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
The EPC has just been inspected, so the rating reflects current condition.
