About Manor House

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

Manor House is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Danbury, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 4JQ). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 657 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band D. At 61 m² this is the 5th smallest of 12 units on EPC record in Manor House, where floor areas span 48–104 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. The latest certificate (May 2019) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. Main heating runs on lpg.

Held since July 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2003–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at -2.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £323,000 sits 61.5% above the 2008 sale of £200,000.
