The estimate for 105 Kings Tower is modelled from its 148 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CM1 1GS. 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.

105 Kings Tower is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Chelmsford (CM1 1GS). It has a recorded floor area of 148 m² (around 1593 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band F. There is a swimming pool on the plot, uncommon for the area. Other recorded features include a balcony. At 148 m² this is the 66th smallest of 71 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 36–202 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (May 2021) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since November 2008. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). Main heating runs on electricity.
It hasn't traded since May 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 148 m² the property is well over the postcode median (66 m² across 70 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2008–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 52.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £415,000 is 18.6% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£220/sq ft) was about 34.5% below the postcode norm.
105 Kings Tower sits at the bottom of the postcode for energy efficiency — meaningful headroom to improve.
