Overview

About 7 Becker Road

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

7 Becker Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Colchester (CO3 9XR). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 718 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2010) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since November 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £265,000 sits 314.1% above the 1999 sale of £64,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£89/sq ft) was about 56.1% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs).
