Overview

About 181 New London Road

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

181 New London Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Chelmsford (CM2 0AE). It has a recorded floor area of 145 m² (around 1561 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement.

How to read this page

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 181 New London Road is modelled from its 145 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CM2 0AE. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 181 New London 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 181 New London Road was lodged in November 2014 at band F and expired in November 2024, 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. 1 application is matched to 181 New London 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 30 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CM2 0AE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
181 New London Road is in council tax band D. 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.
