23 New Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Great Baddow, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM2 7QT). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2020) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since June 2010. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump.
