About 61 High Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
61 High Street is a semi-detached house in Tarvin, Chester, Chester (CH3 8EE). It has a recorded floor area of 156 m² (around 1679 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £236,000 is 63.7% below the 2025 sale of £650,000, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£387/sq ft) was about 132.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It changed hands recently, sold February 2025 for £650,000. 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include subdivision, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 156 m² it's 26.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (123 m² median across 23 EPCs).

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 61 High Street is modelled from its 156 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CH3 8EE. 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 61 High Street. 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 61 High Street was lodged in January 2015 at band E and expired in January 2025, 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. 3 applications are matched to 61 High Street. 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 2 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CH3 8EE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
