About 1 New Houses
1 New Houses is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Hartford End, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 1JT). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1930-1949. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since May 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £398,000 sits 59.2% above the 2007 sale of £250,000. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
