14 Station Road is a semi-detached house in Tiptree, Colchester, Colchester (CO5 0AD). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2021) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in April 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. Main heating runs on electricity. At 62 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 12 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 53–112 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (39 versus a best of 83).

It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 62 m² it sits well below the postcode median (93 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2008. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £201,000 is 14.9% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£262/sq ft) was about 26.6% below the postcode norm.
