About 1 Becketts Lane
1 Becketts Lane is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Chester (CH3 5RN). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. Earlier certificates rated it B (June 2014); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
Across 1995–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £278,000 sits 66.5% above the 2015 sale of £167,000.
