Overview

About 9 Essex Hall Road

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

9 Essex Hall Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Colchester (CO1 1ZP). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 588 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2011) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since May 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Average; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The latest certificate is from October 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£255/sq ft) was about 31.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in February 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
