Overview

About 1 Cathedral Walk

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

1 Cathedral Walk is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Chelmsford (CM1 1NX). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 452 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2024) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in January 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). Main heating runs on electricity.

It hasn't traded since June 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £177,000 is 23.3% above the 2008 sale price.
