3 Arbutus Close, Chelmsford, CM2 9HW
About 3 Arbutus Close
3 Arbutus Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Chelmsford (CM2 9HW). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1025 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2009) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from July 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
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. Today's modelled estimate of £405,000 sits 84.9% above the 2009 sale of £219,000.
