About 17 Gilbert Court
17 Gilbert Court is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Colchester (CO1 1DL). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2020) returns a B (score 81), comfortably above the UK average. The rating has held steady at B across 2 certificates since January 2011. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. At 73 m² this is the 43rd smallest of 50 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 37–92 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the top.
Held since September 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 73 m² it's 17.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (62 m² median across 49 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £174,000 is 40.3% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£158/sq ft) was about 23.9% below the postcode norm.
