About 10 Barkhill Road

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

10 Barkhill Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Vicars Cross, Chester, Chester (CH3 5JQ). It has a recorded floor area of 155 m² (around 1668 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80).

At 155 m² the property is well over the postcode median (97 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £499,000 sits 52.4% above the 2014 sale of £327,500. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2023. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. 12 years since the last transfer (August 2014).
