About 16 Cowhey Close
16 Cowhey Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Chester (CH4 7QT). It has a recorded floor area of 104 m² (around 1119 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2011) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from January 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since April 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £262,000 sits 52.8% above the 2007 sale of £171,500. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 104 m² it's 16.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (89 m² median across 8 EPCs).
