About 28 Somerset Road
28 Somerset Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Newton, Chester, Chester (CH2 2QE). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 973 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since December 2008, a hold of 17 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. At 90 m² the property is well over the postcode median (69 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £173,000 sits 73% above the 2008 sale of £100,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£103/sq ft) was about 37.6% below the postcode norm.
