Overview

About 310 Ipswich Road

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

310 Ipswich Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Colchester (CO4 0ET). It has a recorded floor area of 143 m² (around 1539 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since June 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 143 m² the property is well over the postcode median (98 m² across 28 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Last changed hands 13 years ago, in May 2013. Across 1998–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £518,000 is 48% above the 2013 sale price.
