Overview

About 22 Ratcliffe Court

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

22 Ratcliffe Court is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Colchester (CO4 0AZ). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (July 2020) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since September 2009. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, lighting went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Poor to Average; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. Main heating runs on electricity. At 55 m² this is the 13th smallest of 50 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 41–88 m².
