About 15 Lowefields

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

15 Lowefields is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Earls Colne, Colchester, Colchester (CO6 2LH). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 587 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2011) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 62).
