Overview

About 13 Glendale Grove

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

13 Glendale Grove is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Colchester (CO4 0LU). It has a recorded floor area of 112 m² (around 1210 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Held since July 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. Across 1999–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £339,000 sits 83.2% above the 2009 sale of £185,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£153/sq ft) was about 33.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2001. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 112 m² it's 29.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (87 m² median across 7 EPCs). 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count.
