About 3 Hartley Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 Hartley Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Higher Kinnerton, Chester, Chester (CH4 9PF). It has a recorded floor area of 117 m² (around 1259 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (July 2022) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2023. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 117 m² it's 29.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (166 m² median across 5 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £439,000 is 13.3% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£308/sq ft) was about 70.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £387,500 in October 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 3 Hartley Close is modelled from its 117 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CH4 9PF. 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 3 Hartley Close. 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 3 Hartley Close was lodged in July 2022 at band D and is valid until July 2032. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
