About 216 Bergholt Road
216 Bergholt Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Colchester (CO4 5AS). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 779 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2010) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). The latest certificate is from April 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
Held since July 1995 — that's 31 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £241,000 sits 487.8% above the 1995 sale of £41,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£53/sq ft) was about 73.8% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2005.
