About 6 Avocet Close

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

6 Avocet Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Kelvedon, Colchester, Colchester (CO5 9PD). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E.
