Overview

About The Gateway

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

The Gateway is a two-bedroom property in Farndon, Chester, Chester (CH3 6PU). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft). At 86 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across The Gateway (55–86 m²). The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (August 2016) returns a B (score 84), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from August 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £179,000 is 15.5% above the 2018 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£167/sq ft) was about 40.9% below the postcode norm. 8 years since the last transfer (May 2018).

How 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 The Gateway is modelled from its 86 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CH3 6PU. 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 The Gateway. 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 The Gateway was lodged in August 2016 at band B and expired in August 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to The Gateway. 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 1 school and 14 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CH3 6PU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
