Crantock is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Althorne, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 6DP). It has a recorded floor area of 121 m² (around 1302 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (December 2024) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include notable views. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
It hasn't traded since February 2000, a hold of 26 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £444,000 sits 396.1% above the 2000 sale of £89,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£69/sq ft) was about 73.5% below the postcode norm. At 121 m² it's 25.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (162 m² median across 24 EPCs).
Recommended upgrades on file would lift this property by multiple EPC bands.
