Overview

About 15 Priory Court

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

15 Priory Court is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Colchester (CO3 3HH). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2020) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 3 certificates since March 2010. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). Main heating runs on electricity. At 69 m² this is the 18th smallest of 20 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 50–70 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 20 units on file.

It hasn't traded since July 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. At 69 m² the property is well over the postcode median (49 m² across 87 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £158,000 is 12.9% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£188/sq ft) was about 26.2% below the postcode norm.
