Overview

About 1b

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

1b is a four-bedroom detached house in Roxwell, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM1 4NX). It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1313 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2012) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from June 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 122 m² the property is well over the postcode median (80 m² across 25 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£411/sq ft) was about 54.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: September 2021 at £540,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
