Overview

About 8 Surrey Lane

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

8 Surrey Lane is a four-bedroom detached house in Tiptree, Colchester, Colchester (CO5 0BH). It has a recorded floor area of 158 m² (around 1704 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2011) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from August 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 158 m² the property is well over the postcode median (102 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £537,000 sits 76.1% above the 2011 sale of £305,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2020. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in December 2011, so it's been off the market for around 15 years.

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 8 Surrey Lane is modelled from its 158 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO5 0BH. 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 8 Surrey Lane. 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 8 Surrey Lane was lodged in August 2011 at band D and expired in August 2021, 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. 1 application is matched to 8 Surrey Lane. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 6 schools and 29 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO5 0BH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
8 Surrey Lane is in council tax band E. 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.
