About 2 Primrose Hill

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

2 Primrose Hill is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Chelmsford (CM1 2RQ). It has a recorded floor area of 128 m² (around 1380 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve.
