About 14 Ripple Way
14 Ripple Way is a semi-detached house in Colchester (CO4 0AW). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1013 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since September 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £284,000 sits 89.3% above the 2009 sale of £150,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£148/sq ft) was about 40.5% below the postcode norm. At 94 m² it's 20.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (78 m² median across 7 EPCs).
