Overview

About 15 Chiltern Close

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

15 Chiltern Close is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Chelmsford (CM1 2GJ). It has a recorded floor area of 41 m² (around 441 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. At 41 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 27 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 40–97 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (October 2018) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (October 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, main heating dropped from Very Good to Good.

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. Today's modelled estimate of £169,000 sits 79.8% above the 2009 sale of £94,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£213/sq ft) was about 32.3% below the postcode norm. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count.
