Overview

About 1 Chelmsford Road

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

1 Chelmsford Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Harrogate (HG1 5NA). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2022) shows a C (score 74). When first surveyed in March 2012 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88).

It hasn't traded since June 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 88 m² it sits well below the postcode median (142 m² across 21 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 81% of similar EPCs). Across 1996–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £321,000 is 14.6% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£296/sq ft) was about 31.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
