About 2 Brassey Street

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

2 Brassey Street is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Chester (CH3 5DN). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 657 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. At 61 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 11 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 55–137 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (February 2017) shows a C (score 79), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in February 2012 the rating was F, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good.

At 61 m² it sits well below the postcode median (118 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. One planning record on file: subdivision approved in 2013. Past consents include subdivision, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £152,000 is 22.6% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£189/sq ft) was about 99.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in March 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
