Overview

About 2 Chapel Lane

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

2 Chapel Lane is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Swindon, Dudley, Dudley (DY3 4PL). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 911 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2010) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in April 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and window efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 66). The latest certificate is from August 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views.

At 85 m² it sits well below the postcode median (122 m² across 8 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in October 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years. Across 2009–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £295,000 is 37.2% above the 2016 sale price.
