About 8 Arnold Way
8 Arnold Way is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bosham, Chichester, Chichester (PO18 8NJ). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since October 2010. Between certificates, main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 2007, a hold of 19 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. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £323,000 sits 67.8% above the 2007 sale of £192,500. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs).
