About 10 Rayleigh Close
10 Rayleigh Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Colchester (CO4 0AT). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 687 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 64 m² this is the 5th smallest of 20 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 58–109 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows a C (score 71). The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since October 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £153,000 sits 61.1% above the 2009 sale of £95,000.
