Overview

About 18 Wheelwright Place

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

18 Wheelwright Place is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Mile End, Colchester, Colchester (CO4 5ZF). It has a recorded floor area of 41 m² (around 441 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band B. At 41 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 18 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 40–63 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 18 units on file. Other recorded features include a balcony. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (May 2022) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). Main heating runs on electricity.

Held since July 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
