How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Audley Crescent is modelled from its 142 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CH4 7ET. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

About 1 Audley Crescent
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Audley Crescent is a four-bedroom detached house in Chester (CH4 7ET). It has a recorded floor area of 142 m² (around 1527 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (February 2011) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The latest certificate is from February 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£262/sq ft) was about 22% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 1 Audley Crescent is modelled from its 142 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CH4 7ET. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 1 Audley Crescent. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1 Audley Crescent was lodged in February 2011 at band C and expired in February 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 1 Audley Crescent. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 17 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CH4 7ET, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1 Audley Crescent is in council tax band G. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
