Overview

About 1 Mill Street

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

1 Mill Street is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Nayland, Colchester, Colchester (CO6 4HU). It has a recorded floor area of 52 m² (around 560 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 (March 2020) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since June 2013. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good; while main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 93), a 5-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

At 52 m² it sits well below the postcode median (130 m² across 6 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Across 2004–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.3% per year.
