About 36 St Botolphs Street

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

36 St Botolphs Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Colchester (CO2 7EA). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 685 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 57), a 2-band jump.
