Overview

About 1 The Old Police Houses

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

1 The Old Police Houses is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Broxton, Chester, Chester (CH3 9JR). It has a recorded floor area of 331 m² (around 3563 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2021) shows an F (score 22), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 65), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg. Period features are noted in the property record.

Held since May 2005 — that's 21 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 331 m² the property is well over the postcode median (214 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £513,000 is 44.5% above the 2005 sale price.
