Overview

About 23 Catchpool Road

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

23 Catchpool Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Colchester (CO1 1XN). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 863 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2010) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in April 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average and window efficiency went from Average to Good.
