About Ethos Court

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

Ethos Court is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Chester (CH3 5BB). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 570 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2022) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since May 2012. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor. Main heating runs on electricity. At 53 m² this is the 5th smallest of 19 units on EPC record in Ethos Court, where floor areas span 46–98 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 19 units on file. Other recorded features include a balcony.

Today's modelled estimate of £156,000 is 12.4% below the 2005 sale of £178,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£312/sq ft) was about 83.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It hasn't traded since September 2005, a hold of 21 years that's notably long for the area. At 53 m² it's 19.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (66 m² median across 18 EPCs).
