1 Beaver Close, Colchester, CO3 9DZ
About 1 Beaver Close
1 Beaver Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Colchester (CO3 9DZ). It has a recorded floor area of 93 m² (around 1001 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Held since April 1999 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £344,000 sits 212.7% above the 1999 sale of £110,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£110/sq ft) was about 49.7% below the postcode norm.
