Overview

About 34 Marsh Lane

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

34 Marsh Lane is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Ince, Chester, Chester (CH2 4NP). It has a recorded floor area of 40 m² (around 431 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since September 2011. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 40 m² it sits well below the postcode median (67 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £130,000 is 25% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£242/sq ft) was about 27.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £104,000 in April 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2017.
