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.
