Overview

About 186 New London Road

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

186 New London Road is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Chelmsford (CM2 0AR). It has a recorded floor area of 230 m² (around 2476 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (August 2017) shows an F (score 31), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 64), a 2-band jump. The home occupies a corner plot.

It hasn't traded since January 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 230 m² the property is well over the postcode median (38 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £872,000 is 39.5% above the 2008 sale price.
