Overview

About 15 Ashurst Close

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

15 Ashurst Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Rowhedge, Colchester, Colchester (CO5 7HU). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1163 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2014) returns an A (score 92), the top energy band on the EPC scale. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since January 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 108 m² the property is well over the postcode median (81 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Across 1996–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £321,000 sits 81.4% above the 2008 sale of £177,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£152/sq ft) was about 28.9% below the postcode norm.
