About 3 Chester Place
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 Chester Place is a mid-terrace house in Halifax (HX3 6LU). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2015) shows an F (score 28), near the bottom of the EPC scale. When first surveyed in April 2015 the rating was G, the property has climbed 1 band since. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since May 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. At 88 m² the property is well over the postcode median (59 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 1998–1999, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £129,000 sits 263.4% above the 1999 sale of £35,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£37/sq ft) was about 66.6% below the postcode norm.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 3 Chester Place is modelled from its 88 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HX3 6LU. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 3 Chester Place. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 3 Chester Place was lodged in December 2015 at band F and expired in December 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 3 Chester Place. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 26 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HX3 6LU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 3 Chester Place is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
