Overview

About 5 Ashford Road

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

5 Ashford Road is a semi-detached house in Chelmsford (CM1 2ST). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
