Overview

About Brown Leaves House

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

Brown Leaves House is a five-bedroom detached house in Althorne, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 6DU). It has a recorded floor area of 161 m² (around 1733 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows an F (score 34), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 94), a 5-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory, outbuildings and attached land beyond the plot. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 161 m² the property is well over the postcode median (86 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). 10 years since the last transfer (October 2016). Across 1995–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £725,000 is 21.8% above the 2016 sale price. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2015.
