About 1 Chequers Court
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Chequers Court is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Horsham (RH13 5RW). It has a recorded floor area of 32 m² (around 344 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 32 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (32–36 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (43 versus a best of 73). Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (February 2012); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Last sale on file: £170,000 in June 2021. Across the public record there are 7 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One planning record on file: new windows approved in 2007. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs). Across 1997–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.7% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£494/sq ft) was about 66.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 1 Chequers Court is modelled from its 32 m² EPC floor area, its 7 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in RH13 5RW. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 7 sales are recorded for 1 Chequers Court. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1 Chequers Court was lodged in November 2014 at band E and expired in November 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 1 Chequers Court. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 17 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RH13 5RW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1 Chequers Court is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
