Overview

About 164 Upper Bridge Road

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

164 Upper Bridge Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Chelmsford (CM2 0BB). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2024) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in September 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The home occupies a corner plot.

Held since September 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1998–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £355,000 sits 77.5% above the 2009 sale of £200,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£219/sq ft) was about 15.4% below the postcode norm.
