18 Spital Walk, Chester, CH3 5DB

18 Spital Walk is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Chester (CH3 5DB). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 958 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows an F (score 34), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 4-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since June 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 89 m² the property is well over the postcode median (57 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £207,000 sits 305.9% above the 1998 sale of £51,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£53/sq ft) was about 70% below the postcode norm.
