Overview

About 3 Dudley Road

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

3 Dudley Road is a semi-detached house in Fingringhoe, Colchester, Colchester (CO5 7DS). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 25 years, with the last transfer in May 2001. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £315,000 sits 260% above the 2001 sale of £87,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£100/sq ft) was about 48.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs).
