Overview

About 7 Albertine Close

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

7 Albertine Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Stanway, Colchester, Colchester (CO3 0JJ). It has a recorded floor area of 59 m² (around 635 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since January 2012. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 59 m² it's 22.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (77 m² median across 6 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £296,000 is 24.9% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£373/sq ft) was about 54.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold June 2021 for £237,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 7 Albertine Close is modelled from its 59 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO3 0JJ. 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 7 Albertine Close. 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 7 Albertine Close was lodged in March 2016 at band E and expired in March 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 7 Albertine Close. 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 0JJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
7 Albertine Close 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.
