Overview

About 6 Cavendish Gardens

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

6 Cavendish Gardens is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Chelmsford (CM2 6BB). It has a recorded floor area of 49 m² (around 527 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. At 49 m² this is the 19th smallest of 49 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 34–73 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (June 2019) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since May 2009. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average and main heating went from Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). Main heating runs on electricity.

Held since October 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.
