About 25 Somerset Road
25 Somerset Road is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Newton, Chester, Chester (CH2 2QD). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since January 2014. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since May 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £192,000 is 32.4% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£204/sq ft) was about 41% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
