Overview

About 2 De Burgh Road

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

2 De Burgh Road is a mid-terrace house in Colchester (CO3 9BQ). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a C (score 73). The rating has held steady at C across 3 certificates since August 2014. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
