Overview

About 20 Spring Road

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

20 Spring Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Tiptree, Colchester, Colchester (CO5 0BD). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1184 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2010) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). The latest certificate is from September 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a corner plot.

It hasn't traded since July 2011, a hold of 15 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £439,000 sits 75.6% above the 2011 sale of £250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£211/sq ft) was about 29.1% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2007.
