15 Bury Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Marks Tey, Colchester, Colchester (CO6 1LE). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1296 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2009) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since April 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 120 m² the property is well over the postcode median (93 m² across 20 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £316,000 sits 464.3% above the 1996 sale of £56,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£43/sq ft) was about 77.2% below the postcode norm.
