Overview

About 16 Coval Avenue

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

16 Coval Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Chelmsford (CM1 1TF). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 895 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2011) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 62). The latest certificate is from November 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since August 2008 — that's 18 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. Today's modelled estimate of £383,000 sits 94.4% above the 2008 sale of £197,000. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs).
