Overview

About 1 Armoury Road

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

1 Armoury Road is a three-bedroom detached house in West Bergholt, Colchester, Colchester (CO6 3JN). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2014) returns a high B (score 86), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating.

Held since September 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm.

On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1996–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £359,000 is 34% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£277/sq ft) was about 45.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
