About The Hollies

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

The Hollies is a one-bedroom detached house in Biddestone, Chippenham, Chippenham (SN14 7DA). It has a recorded floor area of 245 m² (around 2637 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 4-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe.

At 245 m² the property is well over the postcode median (96 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
