Overview

About 14 Hunters Corner

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

14 Hunters Corner is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Colchester (CO3 9DA). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 773 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2010) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was G, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from March 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since May 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 72 m² it's 19.6% larger than the typical home in the postcode (60 m² median across 12 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2003–2010, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £168,000 is 46.1% above the 2010 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£149/sq ft) was about 20.6% below the postcode norm.

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 14 Hunters Corner is modelled from its 72 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CO3 9DA. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 14 Hunters Corner. 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 14 Hunters Corner was lodged in March 2010 at band F and expired in March 2020, 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 14 Hunters Corner. 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 24 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO3 9DA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
14 Hunters Corner 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.
