Overview

About 20 Upper Bridge Road

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

20 Upper Bridge Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Chelmsford (CM2 0AY). It has a recorded floor area of 51 m² (around 550 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 58). The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since May 2007, a hold of 19 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. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £355,000 sits 77.5% above the 2007 sale of £200,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£364/sq ft) was about 66.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 51 m² it sits well below the postcode median (78 m² across 23 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
