Overview

About 15 Chaucer Court

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

15 Chaucer Court is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Guildford (GU2 4DB). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since August 2012. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 71 m² this is the 18th smallest of 29 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 41–134 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 29 units on file. Period features are noted in the property record.

Held since February 1996 — that's 30 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £299,000 sits 367.2% above the 1996 sale of £64,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£84/sq ft) was about 69.9% below the postcode norm. At 71 m² it's 22.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (58 m² median across 28 EPCs).
