About 21 Bennetts Lane
21 Bennetts Lane is a four-bedroom detached house in Higher Kinnerton, Chester, Chester (CH4 9AR). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 934 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2012) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 65). The latest certificate is from January 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
At 87 m² the property is well over the postcode median (47 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2009. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £321,000 is 33.7% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£257/sq ft) was about 16.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold January 2021 for £240,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
