How the estimate is made
The estimate for 59 Goring Road is modelled from its 68 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CO4 0DA. 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.

About 59 Goring Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
59 Goring Road is a mid-terrace house in Colchester (CO4 0DA). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 730 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2010) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in April 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good; while lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The latest certificate is from June 2010, 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 1995–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £203,000 sits 283% above the 2009 sale of £53,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£73/sq ft) was about 55.6% below the postcode norm.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 59 Goring Road is modelled from its 68 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CO4 0DA. 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 59 Goring 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 59 Goring Road was lodged in June 2010 at band C and expired in June 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 59 Goring 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 27 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO4 0DA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 59 Goring Road 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.
