About 1 Snows Court
1 Snows Court is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Great Waltham, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 1DE). It has a recorded floor area of 51 m² (around 549 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. At 51 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (51–52 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to E, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (February 2024) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since August 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and main heating dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
It hasn't traded since June 2000, a hold of 26 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £226,000 sits 143% above the 2000 sale of £93,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£169/sq ft) was about 33.3% below the postcode norm. At 51 m² it sits well below the postcode median (99 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
