Overview

About 126 Mill Road

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

126 Mill Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Mile End, Colchester, Colchester (CO4 5LL). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1090 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2011) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 101 m² it's 28.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (79 m² median across 19 EPCs).
