Overview

About 5 Beadle Way

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

5 Beadle Way is a six-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Great Leighs, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 1RT). It has a recorded floor area of 151 m² (around 1625 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows an F (score 24), near the bottom of the EPC scale. When first surveyed in September 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 53). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 151 m² the property is well over the postcode median (61 m² across 37 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 6 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Across 2009–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £390,000 is 13% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£212/sq ft) was about 16.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in September 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2011.

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 5 Beadle Way is modelled from its 151 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CM3 1RT. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 5 Beadle Way. 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 5 Beadle Way was lodged in March 2016 at band F and expired in March 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 5 Beadle Way. 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 1 school and 16 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CM3 1RT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
5 Beadle Way 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.
