Overview

About 5 Mill Street

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

5 Mill Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Nayland, Colchester, Colchester (CO6 4HU). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 719 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 (May 2011) shows an F (score 25), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 53). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from May 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since October 2000, a hold of 26 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £218,000 sits 199.7% above the 2000 sale of £72,750. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£101/sq ft) was about 40.4% below the postcode norm. 5 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 3 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. At 67 m² it sits well below the postcode median (128 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).
