Get started16 Goldlay Gardens is a semi-detached house in Chelmsford (CM2 0EN). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2022) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since April 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 92 m² the property is well over the postcode median (67 m² across 42 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £407,000 sits 526.2% above the 1998 sale of £65,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£66/sq ft) was about 83.9% below the postcode norm.
Recommended upgrades on file would lift this property by multiple EPC bands.
16 Goldlay Gardens's modelled value sits at over four times its earliest registered sale price (1998).
