About 20 Chester Street
20 Chester Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Sunderland (SR4 7DF). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2026) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in September 2016 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
Held since July 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.

Today's modelled estimate of £120,000 is 14.3% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£128/sq ft) was about 85.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
