How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1c is modelled from its 72 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO4 0YP. 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 1c
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1c is a two-bedroom detached house in Colchester (CO4 0YP). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft). The latest certificate (November 2015) returns a B (score 81), comfortably above the UK average. The recommended improvements would push it to A (score 94). The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.
At 72 m² it sits well below the postcode median (105 m² across 4 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £362,000 is 11.4% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£419/sq ft) was about 144.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. On the market in September 2017 and unlisted since — roughly 9 years.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 1c is modelled from its 72 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO4 0YP. 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 1c. 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 1c was lodged in November 2015 at band B and expired in November 2025, 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. None is matched to 1c. 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 19 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO4 0YP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
