About Inglenook Cottage

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

Inglenook Cottage is a detached house in Langham, Colchester, Colchester (CO4 5PZ). It has a recorded floor area of 225 m² (around 2422 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since August 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2003–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £844,000 sits 56.3% above the 2009 sale of £540,000. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
