Overview

About 8 Imperial Court

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

8 Imperial Court is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Colchester (CO1 1AU). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2020) returns a B (score 81), comfortably above the UK average. Other recorded features include a balcony.

Held since October 2008 — that's 18 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. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 71% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £158,000 is 37.4% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£187/sq ft) was about 19.3% below the postcode norm.
