About 15 Oaklands

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

15 Oaklands is a three-bedroom detached house in Leavenheath, Colchester, Colchester (CO6 4UH). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
