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

23 Belvawney Close is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Chelmsford (CM1 4YR). It has a recorded floor area of 38 m² (around 409 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band A.

Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good.
