Overview

About 1 Evelyn Road

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

1 Evelyn Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Great Leighs, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 1QQ). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 452 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 108), a 5-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

At 42 m² it sits well below the postcode median (104 m² across 30 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £324,000 is 37.9% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£520/sq ft) was about 59.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 10 years ago, in September 2016.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Evelyn Road is modelled from its 42 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CM3 1QQ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 1 Evelyn Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1 Evelyn Road was lodged in June 2016 at band F and expired in June 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 1 Evelyn Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 2 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CM3 1QQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Evelyn Road is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
