Overview

About 12 Chestnut Fold

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

12 Chestnut Fold is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Radcliffe, Manchester, Manchester (M26 4SX). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (February 2015); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since December 1996 — that's 29 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. At 69 m² it's 22.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (90 m² median across 20 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £291,000 sits 400% above the 1996 sale of £58,200. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£78/sq ft) was about 53.8% below the postcode norm.
