Overview

About 9 Chester Close

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

9 Chester Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Guildford (GU2 9TE). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in May 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since September 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £449,000 sits 91.1% above the 2010 sale of £235,000. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 71% of similar EPCs).
