About 74 Maldon Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
74 Maldon Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Tiptree, Colchester, Colchester (CO5 0BW). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since April 2014. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 106), a 4-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £433,000 sits 66.5% above the 2014 sale of £260,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£265/sq ft) was about 22% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 91 m² it's 24.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (121 m² median across 14 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). 12 years since the last transfer (October 2014).

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 74 Maldon Road is modelled from its 91 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO5 0BW. 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 74 Maldon Road. 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 74 Maldon Road was lodged in June 2015 at band E and expired in June 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 74 Maldon Road. 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 27 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO5 0BW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 74 Maldon Road is in council tax band D. 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.
