About 23 Edies Lane
23 Edies Lane is a five-bedroom detached house in Leavenheath, Colchester, Colchester (CO6 4PA). It has a recorded floor area of 261 m² (around 2809 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 3 certificates since April 2012. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor.
