2 Browning Close, Colchester, CO3 4JJ

2 Browning Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Colchester (CO3 4JJ). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a corner plot.

It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1998–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £336,000 sits 67.1% above the 2009 sale of £201,111. 5 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension, a loft conversion and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
