Overview

About 5 Bainbridge Drive

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

5 Bainbridge Drive is a three-bedroom detached house in Tiptree, Colchester, Colchester (CO5 0BP). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 898 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 1997–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £398,000 sits 50.2% above the 2015 sale of £265,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£295/sq ft) was about 54% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 83 m² it sits well below the postcode median (123 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Last sold in July 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years. Across the public record there are 6 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
