About 1 Littley Park Cottages
1 Littley Park Cottages is a six-bedroom semi-detached house in Hartford End, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 1LB). It has a recorded floor area of 140 m² (around 1507 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include outbuildings and attached land beyond the plot. The latest certificate (April 2026) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in May 2012 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). Main heating runs on oil. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
