About 21 Brookside
21 Brookside is a three-bedroom detached house in Ashton Hayes, Chester, Chester (CH3 8BZ). It has a recorded floor area of 194 m² (around 2088 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
It hasn't traded since May 2007, a hold of 19 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. At 194 m² the property is well over the postcode median (83 m² across 29 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 72% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £354,000 sits 52.6% above the 2007 sale of £232,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£111/sq ft) was about 49.2% below the postcode norm.
