Overview

About 18 London Road

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

18 London Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Stanway, Colchester, Colchester (CO3 0HA). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (February 2013) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since February 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 118 m² the property is well over the postcode median (83 m² across 25 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £419,000 is 47% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£224/sq ft) was about 22.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 18 London Road is modelled from its 118 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO3 0HA. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 18 London Road. 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 18 London Road was lodged in February 2013 at band E and expired in February 2023, 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 18 London Road. 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 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 21 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO3 0HA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
