Overview

About Hillwood House

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

Hillwood House is a detached house in Eccleston, Chester, Chester (CH4 9HW). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 2007-2011. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Today's modelled estimate of £719,000 is 11.2% below the 2007 sale of £810,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. Held since July 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. 5 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, a conservatory, partial demolition and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

How 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 Hillwood House is modelled from its 101 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CH4 9HW. 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 Hillwood House. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
