Overview

About 1 Eves Villas

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

1 Eves Villas is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bicknacre, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 4HN). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows an F (score 23), near the bottom of the EPC scale. When first surveyed in February 2014 the rating was G, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and main heating went from Very Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 96), a 5-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. Period features are noted in the property record.

At 81 m² it sits well below the postcode median (208 m² across 4 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2014–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 18% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £439,000 is 17.1% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£430/sq ft) was about 282.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in August 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.

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 Eves Villas is modelled from its 81 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CM3 4HN. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 1 Eves Villas. 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 Eves Villas was lodged in September 2015 at band F and expired in September 2025, 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. None is matched to 1 Eves Villas. 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 3 schools and 22 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CM3 4HN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Eves Villas is in council tax band D. 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.
