About 9 Caelum Drive
9 Caelum Drive is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Colchester (CO2 8FN). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band B. At 64 m² this is the 48th 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 (December 2020) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). Main heating runs on electricity.
Today's modelled estimate of £144,000 is 17.7% below the 2007 sale of £175,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. Held since July 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.
