Overview

About 7 Duchess Place

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

7 Duchess Place is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Chester (CH2 2JL). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 657 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band B. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. At 61 m² this is the 38th smallest of 78 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 48–120 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 78 units on file. The latest certificate (November 2012) shows a C (score 70). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from November 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since July 2002, a hold of 24 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £153,000 sits 53.1% above the 2002 sale of £99,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£152/sq ft) was about 21.9% below the postcode norm.
