About Kayla Court
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Kayla Court is a two-bedroom detached house in Colchester (CO3 3AJ). It has a recorded floor area of 49 m² (around 529 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band B. At 49 m² this is the 4th smallest of 5 units on EPC record in Kayla Court, where floor areas span 40–118 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £149,000 sits 263.9% above the 1998 sale of £40,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£77/sq ft) was about 57.8% below the postcode norm. At 49 m² it's 17.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (60 m² median across 25 EPCs).

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 Kayla Court is modelled from its 49 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO3 3AJ. 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 Kayla Court. 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 Kayla Court was lodged in January 2009 at band D and expired in January 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 Kayla Court. 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 35 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO3 3AJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Kayla Court 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.
