2 School View, Chignal St James, Chelmsford, CM1 4TS
About 2 School View
2 School View is a semi-detached house in Chignal St. James, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM1 4TS). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since June 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £381,000 sits 81.4% above the 2007 sale of £210,000. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2014.
