Overview

About Sundown

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

Sundown is a four-bedroom detached house in Betchton, Sandbach, Sandbach (CW11 2TJ). It has a recorded floor area of 165 m² (around 1776 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in June 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views, a conservatory and attached land beyond the plot.

Today's modelled estimate of £762,000 sits 67.5% above the 2013 sale of £455,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, a porch and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. 13 years since the last transfer (August 2013).
