Get started17 Well Lane is a four-bedroom detached house in Galleywood, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM2 8QY). It has a recorded floor area of 139 m² (around 1496 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since February 2015. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings and attached land beyond the plot. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility.
