Overview

About 129a

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

129a is a four-bedroom detached house in Danbury, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 4DL). It has a recorded floor area of 166 m² (around 1787 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band G. There is a swimming pool on the plot, uncommon for the area. The latest certificate (June 2025) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80).

Held since February 1999 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 166 m² the property is well over the postcode median (73 m² across 20 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £762,000 sits 193.1% above the 1999 sale of £260,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£146/sq ft) was about 47.4% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2011.
