Overview

About 31 Pipers Lane

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

31 Pipers Lane is a semi-detached house in Chester (CH2 3LP). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1054 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 31 Pipers Lane is modelled from its 98 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CH2 3LP. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 31 Pipers Lane. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 31 Pipers Lane was lodged in February 2009 at band C and expired in February 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 31 Pipers Lane. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 20 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CH2 3LP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
31 Pipers Lane is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
