Overview

About 1 Skips Lane

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

1 Skips Lane is a detached house in Christleton, Chester, Chester (CH3 7BE). It has a recorded floor area of 206 m² (around 2217 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1950-1966. The latest certificate (February 2023) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump.

Held since November 1996 — that's 30 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 206 m² it's 18.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (252 m² median across 7 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £993,000 sits 257.8% above the 1996 sale of £277,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£125/sq ft) was about 33.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2023. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Skips Lane is modelled from its 206 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CH3 7BE. 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 1 Skips 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 1 Skips Lane was lodged in February 2023 at band E and is valid until February 2033. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 1 Skips 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 7BE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
