About 12 Bourne Road
12 Bourne Road is a semi-detached house in Colchester (CO2 7LQ). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 958 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
Held since January 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £230,000 sits 134.7% above the 2007 sale of £98,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£102/sq ft) was about 42.5% below the postcode norm. At 89 m² it's 18.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (75 m² median across 19 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 84% of similar EPCs).
