Dunstan House, Latchingdon Road, Cold Norton, Chelmsford, CM3 6HR

Dunstan House is a five-bedroom detached house in Cold Norton, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 6HR). It has a recorded floor area of 234 m² (around 2519 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (January 2013) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from January 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since July 2002 — that's 24 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 234 m² the property is well over the postcode median (154 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £867,000 sits 147.7% above the 2002 sale of £350,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£139/sq ft) was about 46.5% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
