6 Browning Close, Colchester, CO3 4JJ

6 Browning Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Colchester (CO3 4JJ). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since June 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2005–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at -2.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £360,000 sits 105.7% above the 2009 sale of £175,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
