About 50 Nayland Road
50 Nayland Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Mile End, Colchester, Colchester (CO4 5EN). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2021) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in January 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility.
It hasn't traded since June 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £293,000 sits 89% above the 2009 sale of £155,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£166/sq ft) was about 23.2% below the postcode norm. At 87 m² it's 20% larger than the typical home in the postcode (73 m² median across 12 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs).
