Overview

About 10 Claremont Heights

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

10 Claremont Heights is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Colchester (CO1 1ZU). It has a recorded floor area of 51 m² (around 549 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. At 51 m² this is the 38th smallest of 55 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 40–69 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 1996–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £147,000 is 24.6% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£215/sq ft) was about 22.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in August 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 10 Claremont Heights is modelled from its 51 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CO1 1ZU. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 10 Claremont Heights. 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 10 Claremont Heights was lodged in May 2009 at band D and expired in May 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 10 Claremont Heights. 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 26 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO1 1ZU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
10 Claremont Heights is in council tax band B. 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.
