Overview

About 24a

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

24a is a detached house in Danbury, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 4QH). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2020) shows a G (score 1), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to E (score 51), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot.

Across 2002–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £500,000 is 10.7% below the 2021 sale of £560,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£642/sq ft) was about 185.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 81 m² it's 27.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (112 m² median across 11 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Last sale on file: £560,000 in March 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 24a is modelled from its 81 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CM3 4QH. 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 24a. 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 24a was lodged in February 2020 at band G and is valid until February 2030. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 24a. 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 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CM3 4QH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
24a 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.
