About 14 Chester Mews
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
14 Chester Mews is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Sunderland (SR4 7HX). It has a recorded floor area of 27 m² (around 287 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band A. At 27 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (27–67 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (39 versus a best of 75). The latest certificate (August 2010) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from August 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Across 2004–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at -7.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £102,000 sits 363.6% above the 2016 sale of £22,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£77/sq ft) was about 26.1% below the postcode norm. At 27 m² it sits well below the postcode median (49 m² across 28 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Last sold in July 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 14 Chester Mews is modelled from its 27 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SR4 7HX. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 14 Chester Mews. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 14 Chester Mews was lodged in August 2010 at band E and expired in August 2020, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 14 Chester Mews. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 35 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SR4 7HX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 14 Chester Mews is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
