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

Pinewood Cottage is a semi-detached house in Dodleston, Chester, Chester (CH4 9NG). It has a recorded floor area of 124 m² (around 1335 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump.
