18 Cambrian Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Vicars Cross, Chester, Chester (CH3 5LG). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1023 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2024) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Held since June 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2002–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £340,000 sits 78% above the 2009 sale of £191,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2012. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
