Overview

About 5 Hayes Close

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

5 Hayes Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Chelmsford (CM2 0RN). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. At 77 m² this is the 8th smallest of 29 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 46–88 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (October 2024) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in January 2021 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good.
