Get started5 Arrowsmith Close is an end-of-terrace house in Chigwell (IG7 4PL). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in July 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since March 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 86 m² the property is well over the postcode median (52 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £388,000 sits 385% above the 1999 sale of £80,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£86/sq ft) was about 52.2% below the postcode norm.
Recommended upgrades on file would lift this property by multiple EPC bands.
