About 12 Burrows Road
12 Burrows Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Earls Colne, Colchester, Colchester (CO6 2RZ). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 691 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 55).

It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
