Overview

About 1 Church Road

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

1 Church Road is a six-bedroom detached house in Little Leigh, Northwich, Northwich (CW8 4RR). It has a recorded floor area of 264 m² (around 2842 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band G. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include notable views, a conservatory and attached land beyond the plot. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (July 2025) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since June 2017. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). Main heating runs on oil.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in May 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 264 m² the property is well over the postcode median (95 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 88% of similar EPCs). 6 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £794,000 sits 106.2% above the 2007 sale of £385,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£135/sq ft) was about 44.6% below the postcode norm.
