Overview

About 39 Swan Grove

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

39 Swan Grove is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Chappel, Colchester, Colchester (CO6 2DU). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 923 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2010) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 62). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from August 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs). Across 2009–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £253,000 is 24% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£221/sq ft) was about 40.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in August 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.
