About 7 Bridgend Close

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

7 Bridgend Close is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in South Woodham Ferrers, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 5PD). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1021 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump.
