8 Belle Vue Road, Colchester, CO1 1XA

8 Belle Vue Road is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Colchester (CO1 1XA). It has a recorded floor area of 46 m² (around 495 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2019) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69).

It hasn't traded since November 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 46 m² it sits well below the postcode median (71 m² across 14 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006. Past consents include an extension and subdivision, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2006–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at -12.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £152,000 is 38.2% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£222/sq ft) was about 23.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
