Overview

About 26 Colneford Hill

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

26 Colneford Hill is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in White Colne, Colchester, Colchester (CO6 2PJ). It has a recorded floor area of 38 m² (around 405 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (June 2011) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 48). The latest certificate is from June 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Most recent transfer was October 2025 at £195,000 — fresh data. At 38 m² it sits well below the postcode median (90 m² across 14 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: new windows approved in 2019. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1996–2025, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £224,000 is 14.9% above the 2025 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£482/sq ft) was about 109.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
