Overview

About 17 Cavendish Avenue

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

17 Cavendish Avenue is an end-of-terrace house in Colchester (CO2 8BP). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since April 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £232,000 sits 333.6% above the 1999 sale of £53,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£78/sq ft) was about 59.7% below the postcode norm.
