Overview

About Overtyme

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

Overtyme is a three-bedroom detached house in Tiptree, Colchester, Colchester (CO5 0QH). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since October 2012. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 85 m² it sits well below the postcode median (135 m² across 12 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £404,000 sits 61.6% above the 2013 sale of £250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£273/sq ft) was about 18.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2023. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. 13 years since the last transfer (August 2013).

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 Overtyme is modelled from its 85 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO5 0QH. 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 Overtyme. 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 Overtyme was lodged in April 2014 at band E and expired in April 2024, 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. 1 application is matched to Overtyme. 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 5 schools and 28 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO5 0QH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Overtyme is in council tax band C. 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.
