Overview

About 4 Beche Road

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

4 Beche Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Colchester (CO2 7LS). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B.
