About Chelston
Chelston is a three-bedroom detached house in Taplow, Maidenhead, Maidenhead (SL6 0AP). It has a recorded floor area of 137 m² (around 1475 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in December 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused, 1 pending. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. An active application for a loft conversion is awaiting a decision. Today's modelled estimate of £785,000 is 49.5% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£356/sq ft) was about 51.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in July 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
