Overview

About 18 Dilbridge Road East

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

18 Dilbridge Road East is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Colchester (CO4 0BS). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2009) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from September 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 1996–2010, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £233,000 sits 82.7% above the 2010 sale of £127,500.

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 18 Dilbridge Road East is modelled from its 78 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CO4 0BS. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 18 Dilbridge Road East. 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 18 Dilbridge Road East was lodged in September 2009 at band D and expired in September 2019, 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. 1 application is matched to 18 Dilbridge Road East. 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 27 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO4 0BS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
18 Dilbridge Road East 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.
