Overview

About 4 Chester Street

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

4 Chester Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Sunderland (SR4 7DF). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in November 2012 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £109,000 sits 141.7% above the 2015 sale of £45,100. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£57/sq ft) was about 24.3% below the postcode norm. Last sold in March 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
