Overview

About 13 Foundry Lane

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

13 Foundry Lane is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Earls Colne, Colchester, Colchester (CO6 2SB). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 785 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. The latest certificate (November 2011) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 58). The latest certificate is from November 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 26 years, with the last transfer in April 2000. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £266,000 sits 406.7% above the 2000 sale of £52,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£67/sq ft) was about 65% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2003.
