Overview

About 4 Parklands Way

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

4 Parklands Way is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Galleywood, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM2 8SF). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 938 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.

Held since November 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 87 m² the property is well over the postcode median (58 m² across 28 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £311,000 sits 84% above the 2009 sale of £169,000.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 4 Parklands Way is modelled from its 87 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CM2 8SF. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 4 Parklands Way. 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 4 Parklands Way was lodged in August 2009 at band E and expired in August 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 4 Parklands Way. 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 9 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CM2 8SF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
4 Parklands Way 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.
