Overview

About 26 Chestnut Grove

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

26 Chestnut Grove is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in New Earswick, York, York (YO32 4BU). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C.
