Overview

About 17 Hodge Court

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

17 Hodge Court is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Chelmsford (CM1 1SD). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. At 76 m² this is the 18th smallest of 19 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 34–77 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (June 2023) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 3 certificates since November 2011. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in August 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 76 m² the property is well over the postcode median (58 m² across 18 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2005–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £282,000 is 18% above the 2007 sale price.
