Overview

About Fenton Court

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

Fenton Court is a two-bedroom detached house in Chelmsford (CM1 1HW). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2012 onwards and council tax band D. At 92 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across Fenton Court (49–92 m²). The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (June 2026) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (September 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

At 92 m² the property is well over the postcode median (70 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £210,000 sits 171% above the 2024 sale of £77,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£78/sq ft) was about 78.3% below the postcode norm. Sold December 2024 for £77,500.

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 Fenton Court is modelled from its 92 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CM1 1HW. 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 Fenton Court. 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 Fenton Court was lodged in June 2026 at band C and is valid until June 2036. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Fenton Court. 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 1HW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Fenton Court is in council tax band D. 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.
