Overview

About 8 Delamere Road

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

8 Delamere Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Colchester (CO4 0NH). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since June 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £420,000 sits 58.5% above the 2014 sale of £265,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£293/sq ft) was about 23.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in August 2014 and unlisted since — roughly 12 years. At 84 m² it's 19.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (105 m² median across 18 EPCs).
