Overview

About 8 Peace Road

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

8 Peace Road is a detached house in Stanway, Colchester, Colchester (CO3 0HF). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since May 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £360,000 sits 89.5% above the 2009 sale of £189,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£184/sq ft) was about 32.4% below the postcode norm. At 96 m² it's 19.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (81 m² median across 12 EPCs).

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 8 Peace Road is modelled from its 96 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO3 0HF. 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 8 Peace 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 8 Peace Road was lodged in February 2009 at band D and expired in February 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 8 Peace 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 15 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO3 0HF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
8 Peace Road is in council tax band D. 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.
