Overview

About 10b

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

10b is a two-bedroom detached house in Colchester (CO3 3NS). It has a recorded floor area of 112 m² (around 1206 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2019) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in May 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). At 112 m² this is the 13th smallest of 38 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 31–341 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to B across 38 units on file.

Held since January 2001 — that's 26 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £258,000 sits 330% above the 2001 sale of £60,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£50/sq ft) was about 80.4% below the postcode norm. At 112 m² it sits well below the postcode median (162 m² across 37 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.

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 10b is modelled from its 112 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO3 3NS. 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 10b. 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 10b was lodged in June 2019 at band D and is valid until June 2029. 3 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 10b. 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 32 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO3 3NS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
10b 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.
