Overview

About 65 Sweet Briar Road

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

65 Sweet Briar Road is a semi-detached house in Stanway, Colchester, Colchester (CO3 0HH). It has a recorded floor area of 138 m² (around 1481 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since August 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 138 m² the property is well over the postcode median (85 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £379,000 sits 99.5% above the 2009 sale of £190,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£128/sq ft) was about 45.5% below the postcode norm.
