Overview

About 2 Mallard Close

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

2 Mallard Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Layer-De-La-Haye, Colchester, Colchester (CO2 0JB). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£265/sq ft) was about 28.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in June 2015 and unlisted since — roughly 11 years.
