About 18 Barley Croft
18 Barley Croft is a four-bedroom detached house in Great Boughton, Chester, Chester (CH3 5SP). It has a recorded floor area of 147 m² (around 1582 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2012) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from November 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a corner plot.
At 147 m² the property is well over the postcode median (60 m² across 28 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £503,000 sits 59.7% above the 2013 sale of £315,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2002. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in October 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
