About 5 Allen Close
5 Allen Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Chapel St. Leonards, Skegness, Skegness (PE24 5WJ). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band C. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include outbuildings. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (April 2021) shows a C (score 74). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). Main heating runs on oil.
Held since June 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 100 m² the property is well over the postcode median (69 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £253,000 sits 80.7% above the 2009 sale of £140,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2013. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
