Overview

About 9 Willow Hayes

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

9 Willow Hayes is a four-bedroom detached house in Ashton Hayes, Chester, Chester (CH3 8BT). It has a recorded floor area of 241 m² (around 2599 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 65). The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory and a self-contained annexe.

Held since August 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 241 m² the property is well over the postcode median (175 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £719,000 is 44.1% above the 2009 sale price.
