Overview

About 16 Ferris Avenue

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

16 Ferris Avenue is a four-bedroom detached house in Cold Norton, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 6HZ). It has a recorded floor area of 121 m² (around 1302 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since December 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 5.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £475,000 sits 53.2% above the 2009 sale of £310,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2012. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
