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

Sandycroft is a five-bedroom detached house in Broxton, Chester, Chester (CH3 9LA). It has a recorded floor area of 199 m² (around 2141 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G.

The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 55). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from March 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
