Overview

About 2 Battlesbrook Road

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

2 Battlesbrook Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Colchester (CO2 8EQ). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 768 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since July 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1995–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £238,000 sits 76.3% above the 2009 sale of £134,965. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£176/sq ft) was about 25% below the postcode norm.
