Overview

About 2 Lodge Lane

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

2 Lodge Lane is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Langham, Colchester, Colchester (CO4 5ND). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2025) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since October 2011. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). Main heating runs on oil. Other recorded features include outbuildings.

Held since March 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 68 m² it sits well below the postcode median (152 m² across 4 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £432,000 is 27.1% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£465/sq ft) was about 167.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
