How the estimate is made
The estimate for 3 Chester Lane is modelled from its 172 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CH3 6EE. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

About 3 Chester Lane
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 Chester Lane is a three-bedroom detached house in Saighton, Chester, Chester (CH3 6EE). It has a recorded floor area of 172 m² (around 1851 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2022) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since October 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88).
It hasn't traded since June 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £547,000 sits 68.3% above the 2008 sale of £325,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£176/sq ft) was about 37.3% below the postcode norm.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 3 Chester Lane is modelled from its 172 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CH3 6EE. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 3 Chester Lane. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 3 Chester Lane was lodged in April 2022 at band C and is valid until April 2032. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 3 Chester Lane. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 8 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CH3 6EE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 3 Chester Lane is in council tax band E. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
