Overview

About 5 Hitch Lowes

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

5 Hitch Lowes is a three-bedroom detached house in Chelford, Macclesfield, Macclesfield (SK11 9SR). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1055 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (July 2012) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from July 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Today's modelled estimate of £469,000 sits 56.3% above the 2013 sale of £300,000. At 98 m² it sits well below the postcode median (147 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2013. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in January 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
