The estimate for 22b is modelled from its 79 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CM3 6JG. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

Overview

About 22b

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

22b is a detached house in Cold Norton, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 6JG). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (September 2020) shows an F (score 23), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 5 certificates since February 2010. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 62), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil.

Held since May 1998 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £643,000 sits 226.4% above the 1998 sale of £197,000. At 79 m² it sits well below the postcode median (148 m² across 39 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 22b is modelled from its 79 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CM3 6JG. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 22b. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 22b was lodged in September 2020 at band F and is valid until September 2030. 5 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 22b. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 2 schools and 20 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CM3 6JG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
22b is in council tax band G. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
