Overview

About 27 Chequers Road

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

27 Chequers Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Writtle, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM1 3NG). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2000–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £383,000 sits 56.3% above the 2013 sale of £245,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£361/sq ft) was about 15.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in December 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years. At 63 m² it's 17.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (76 m² median across 8 EPCs).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 27 Chequers Road is modelled from its 63 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CM1 3NG. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 27 Chequers Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 27 Chequers Road was lodged in May 2013 at band D and expired in May 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 27 Chequers Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 6 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CM1 3NG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
27 Chequers Road is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
