About 1 The Bishops
1 The Bishops is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Roxwell, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM1 4PA). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 654 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include outbuildings. Period features are noted in the property record. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (April 2010) shows an F (score 27), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it C (July 2009); the latest reading is 3 bands lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 40). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from April 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 61 m² it sits well below the postcode median (113 m² across 4 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2000–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £333,000 is 21.1% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£421/sq ft) was about 36.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in March 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
