Overview

About 46 Somerset Road

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

46 Somerset Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Newton, Chester, Chester (CH2 2QE). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 62 m² this is the 7th smallest of 21 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 53–90 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to B across 21 units on file. The latest certificate (December 2012) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from December 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
