Overview

About 47 Caelum Drive

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

47 Caelum Drive is a two-bedroom detached house in Colchester (CO2 8FN). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band B. At 63 m² this is the 44th smallest of 67 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 43–103 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 67 units on file. The latest certificate (March 2019) shows a C (score 70). Main heating runs on electricity.

It hasn't traded since June 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£196/sq ft) was about 15.6% below the postcode norm.
