About Harvest Cottage
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Harvest Cottage is a four-bedroom detached house in Feering, Colchester, Colchester (CO5 9QN). It has a recorded floor area of 133 m² (around 1426 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 133 m² the property is well over the postcode median (93 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £479,000 sits 54.5% above the 2009 sale of £310,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£217/sq ft) was about 16.2% below the postcode norm.
