About 4 Charterhouse Cottages

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

4 Charterhouse Cottages is an end-of-terrace house in Cold Norton, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 6JN). It has a recorded floor area of 52 m² (around 560 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in October 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, main heating went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
