12 Brian Bishop Close is a two-bedroom detached house in Walton On The Naze (CO14 8QH). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since February 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, lighting went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in October 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2004–2009, sale prices here grew -0.2% per year, broadly in step with England's 0% HPI growth. Today's modelled estimate of £279,000 sits 69.1% above the 2009 sale of £165,000. At 67 m² it's 22.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (87 m² median across 14 EPCs).
