Overview

About 3 Chester Close

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

3 Chester Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Sutton (SM1 2PP). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. At 62 m² this is the 4th smallest of 8 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 56–67 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (76 versus a worst of 55). The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in September 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
