How the estimate is made

The estimate for 106 Ipswich Road is modelled from its 99 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CO4 0AA. 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.

Overview

About 106 Ipswich Road

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

106 Ipswich Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Colchester (CO4 0AA). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1066 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor and main heating went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 99 m² the property is well over the postcode median (32 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1999–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £335,000 sits 74% above the 2012 sale of £192,500.

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 106 Ipswich Road is modelled from its 99 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CO4 0AA. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 106 Ipswich Road. 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 106 Ipswich Road was lodged in August 2015 at band E and expired in August 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 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 106 Ipswich Road. 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 28 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO4 0AA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
106 Ipswich Road 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.
