Overview

About 5 Clara Reeve Close

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

5 Clara Reeve Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Colchester (CO3 9XD). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £370,000 sits 57.4% above the 2015 sale of £235,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£336/sq ft) was about 40.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 65 m² it sits well below the postcode median (98 m² across 8 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last changed hands 11 years ago, in October 2015.
