About 1 Alma Wood Close
1 Alma Wood Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Chorley (PR7 2FR). It has a recorded floor area of 175 m² (around 1884 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (February 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
At 175 m² the property is well over the postcode median (56 m² across 31 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs). Across 2005–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at -0.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £328,000 sits 72.6% above the 2015 sale of £190,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£101/sq ft) was about 36.4% below the postcode norm. Last sold in August 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
