About 4 Crowsfield Cottages

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

4 Crowsfield Cottages is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in West Hanningfield, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM2 8UH). It has a recorded floor area of 115 m² (around 1238 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2012) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from October 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
