Overview

About 15 Acland Avenue

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

15 Acland Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Colchester (CO3 3RS). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2010) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The latest certificate is from May 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

It hasn't traded since December 1997, a hold of 29 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 £327,000 sits 380.9% above the 1997 sale of £68,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£75/sq ft) was about 73.7% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 15 Acland Avenue is modelled from its 84 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO3 3RS. 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 15 Acland Avenue. 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 15 Acland Avenue was lodged in May 2010 at band C and expired in May 2020, 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. 3 applications are matched to 15 Acland Avenue. 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 30 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO3 3RS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
15 Acland Avenue 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.
