About 9 Blackberry Road

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

9 Blackberry Road is a five-bedroom detached house in Stanway, Colchester, Colchester (CO3 0RT). It has a recorded floor area of 201 m² (around 2158 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (January 2011) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Very Good and main heating went from Average to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor.
