Overview

About 24 Gowy Crescent

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

24 Gowy Crescent is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Tarvin, Chester, Chester (CH3 8LZ). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2015 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since November 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £205,000 sits 493.2% above the 1999 sale of £34,560. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£38/sq ft) was about 78.8% below the postcode norm.
