About 8 Crows Lane

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

8 Crows Lane is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Woodham Ferrers, Chelmsford, Chelmsford (CM3 8RR). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 833 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2010) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 55), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from July 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
