Overview

About 117 Smugglers Club Ground

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

117 Smugglers Club Ground is a three-bedroom detached house in Althorne, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 6DQ). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 601 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2012) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from January 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since May 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2002–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £213,000 sits 249.2% above the 2009 sale of £61,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£101/sq ft) was about 47.6% below the postcode norm. At 56 m² it sits well below the postcode median (105 m² across 19 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
