Overview

About 65 Cherwell Drive

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

65 Cherwell Drive is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Chelmsford (CM1 2JJ). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Sold August 2021 for £267,000. Across the public record there are 6 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 74% of similar EPCs). Across 1998–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £328,000 is 22.8% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£318/sq ft) was about 57.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
