Overview

About 15 Gilderdale Close

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

15 Gilderdale Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Colchester (CO4 0NL). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2014) returns a high B (score 89), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to A (score 95). The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

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 15 Gilderdale Close is modelled from its 118 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO4 0NL. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 15 Gilderdale Close. 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 15 Gilderdale Close was lodged in April 2014 at band B and expired in April 2024, 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 15 Gilderdale Close. 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 20 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO4 0NL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
15 Gilderdale Close is in council tax band D. 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.
