Overview

About 3 Ship Cottages

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

3 Ship Cottages is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in West Hanningfield, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM2 8LA). It has a recorded floor area of 121 m² (around 1304 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2011) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from June 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Period features are noted in the property record.

At 121 m² the property is well over the postcode median (27 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £529,000 sits 62.8% above the 2015 sale of £325,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£249/sq ft) was about 20.8% below the postcode norm. Last sold in September 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2007.
