How the estimate is made
The estimate for 82 Holt Drive is modelled from its 84 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CO2 0DP. 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.

About 82 Holt Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
82 Holt Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Colchester (CO2 0DP). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 899 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2009) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
At 84 m² it's 22.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (68 m² median across 18 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2000–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £309,000 sits 58.5% above the 2015 sale of £195,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£217/sq ft) was about 23.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. On the market in August 2015 and unlisted since — roughly 11 years. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 82 Holt Drive is modelled from its 84 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CO2 0DP. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 82 Holt Drive. 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 82 Holt Drive was lodged in November 2009 at band E and expired in November 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. 1 application is matched to 82 Holt Drive. 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 14 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO2 0DP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 82 Holt Drive is in council tax band C. 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.
