Overview

About Bakery Cottage

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

Bakery Cottage is a five-bedroom detached house in Broxton, Chester, Chester (CH3 9LA). It has a recorded floor area of 197 m² (around 2120 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows an F (score 26), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe and attached land beyond the plot. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

At 197 m² it's 28.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (153 m² median across 15 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £620,000 is 21.1% above the 2021 sale price. Sold January 2021 for £512,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
