Overview

About 1 Parsonage Bungalows

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

1 Parsonage Bungalows is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Howe Street, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 1BS). It has a recorded floor area of 46 m² (around 490 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2010) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since July 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and main heating went from Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from March 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in December 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £244,000 sits 56.4% above the 2009 sale of £156,000. At 46 m² it sits well below the postcode median (85 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count.
