About 3 Gala Close

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

3 Gala Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Broughton, Chester, Chester (CH4 0TE). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 606 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C.
