About Fiddlers Rest
Fiddlers Rest is a detached house in Althorne, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 6DU). It has a recorded floor area of 184 m² (around 1981 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (December 2017) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 66), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil.
Today's modelled estimate of £692,000 is 13.5% below the 2019 sale of £799,995, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition.

At 184 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). One planning record on file: partial demolition refused in 2012.
