About 4 Connaught Close
4 Connaught Close is a two-bedroom detached house in Colchester (CO1 2GJ). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. At 62 m² this is the 11th smallest of 17 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 40–117 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. The home occupies a corner plot. The latest certificate (May 2019) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since April 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). Main heating runs on electricity.
It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 20 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. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£257/sq ft) was about 16.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
