About 20 Ken Cooke Court
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
20 Ken Cooke Court is an end-of-terrace house in Colchester (CO1 1FF). It has a recorded floor area of 33 m² (around 355 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band A. At 33 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 28 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 32–101 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (April 2015); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 33 m² it sits well below the postcode median (61 m² across 27 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs).

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 20 Ken Cooke Court is modelled from its 33 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO1 1FF. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. No sale is recorded for 20 Ken Cooke Court, which usually means it hasn't changed hands since 1995 or the sale was not for value. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 20 Ken Cooke Court was lodged in February 2016 at band D and expired in February 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 20 Ken Cooke Court. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 37 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO1 1FF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 20 Ken Cooke Court is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
