Overview

About 4 Muscade Close

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

4 Muscade Close is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Tiptree, Colchester, Colchester (CO5 0DL). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since October 2011. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 91), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2003–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £276,000 sits 83.4% above the 2012 sale of £150,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£241/sq ft) was about 15.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in March 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
