Overview

About 3 Skips Lane

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

3 Skips Lane is a four-bedroom detached house in Christleton, Chester, Chester (CH3 7BE). It has a recorded floor area of 164 m² (around 1765 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (January 2024) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since November 1998 — that's 28 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. Today's modelled estimate of £831,000 sits 261.3% above the 1998 sale of £230,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£130/sq ft) was about 30.6% below the postcode norm. At 164 m² it sits well below the postcode median (252 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
