About Mistletoe Cottage

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

Mistletoe Cottage is a semi-detached house in Great Wigborough, Colchester, Colchester (CO5 7RH). It has a recorded floor area of 121 m² (around 1302 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (August 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average and main heating dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
