About The Dingle
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
The Dingle is a three-bedroom detached house in Higher Kinnerton, Chester, Chester (CH4 9BR). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1138 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2010) shows a G (score 13), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to F (score 32). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from November 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. Period features are noted in the property record.
At 106 m² it sits well below the postcode median (160 m² across 8 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £374,000 sits 87% above the 2011 sale of £200,000. On the market in October 2011 and unlisted since — roughly 15 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2012.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 The Dingle is modelled from its 106 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CH4 9BR. 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 The Dingle. 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 The Dingle was lodged in November 2010 at band G and expired in November 2020, 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. 1 application is matched to The Dingle. 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 1 school and 16 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CH4 9BR, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- The Dingle is in council tax band E. 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.
