7 Oxford Court is a three-bedroom detached house in Earls Colne, Colchester, Colchester (CO6 2SH). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 837 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2010) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump.
