How the estimate is made
The estimate for 52 New Road is modelled from its 129 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CM2 7QT. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

About 52 New Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
52 New Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Great Baddow, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM2 7QT). It has a recorded floor area of 129 m² (around 1389 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in September 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Period features are noted in the property record. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
At 129 m² the property is well over the postcode median (91 m² across 41 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1996–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.3% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£396/sq ft) was about 69.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold November 2022 for £550,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2011.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 52 New Road is modelled from its 129 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CM2 7QT. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 4 sales are recorded for 52 New Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 52 New Road was lodged in May 2016 at band C and expired in May 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 52 New Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 20 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CM2 7QT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 52 New Road is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
