About Thistledown

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

Thistledown is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Cold Norton, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 6HR). It has a recorded floor area of 154 m² (around 1656 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2010) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Main heating runs on oil.
