How the estimate is made

The estimate for Wells Crescent is modelled from its 60 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CM1 1GN. 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.

Overview

About Wells Crescent

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

Wells Crescent is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Chelmsford (CM1 1GN). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 646 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band C. There is a swimming pool on the plot, uncommon for the area. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Period features are noted in the property record. At 60 m² this is the 34th smallest of 51 units on EPC record in Wells Crescent, where floor areas span 44–97 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 51 units on file. The latest certificate (January 2011) shows a C (score 72). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since October 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. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£277/sq ft) was about 17% below the postcode norm.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Wells Crescent is modelled from its 60 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CM1 1GN. 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 Wells Crescent. 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 Wells Crescent was lodged in January 2011 at band C and expired in January 2021, 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. None is matched to Wells Crescent. 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 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 32 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CM1 1GN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Wells Crescent is in council tax band C. 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.
