About 5 Brook Lane

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

5 Brook Lane is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Galleywood, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM2 8NJ). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 827 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2010) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). The latest certificate is from October 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
