About Lynhurst

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

Lynhurst is a semi-detached house in Langham, Colchester, Colchester (CO4 5PB). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). Main heating runs on oil.
