Overview

About 1c

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

1c is a detached house in Althorne, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 6UP). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 988 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 60). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since April 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 1995–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £369,000 sits 75.7% above the 2009 sale of £210,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£213/sq ft) was about 21.2% below the postcode norm.
