Overview

About Chestnut Cottage

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

Chestnut Cottage is a detached house in Burton, Chippenham, Chippenham (SN14 7LS). It has a recorded floor area of 203 m² (around 2185 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2024) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since November 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 203 m² the property is well over the postcode median (100 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1996–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £848,000 sits 80.4% above the 2007 sale of £470,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£215/sq ft) was about 41.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2011.
