About 21 Colne Rise
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
21 Colne Rise is a semi-detached house in Rowhedge, Colchester, Colchester (CO5 7EH). It has a recorded floor area of 112 m² (around 1206 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in November 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 112 m² the property is well over the postcode median (84 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £322,000 sits 107.7% above the 2013 sale of £155,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£129/sq ft) was about 36.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. 13 years since the last transfer (October 2013).

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 21 Colne Rise is modelled from its 112 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO5 7EH. 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 21 Colne Rise. 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 21 Colne Rise was lodged in November 2014 at band D and expired in November 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 4 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 21 Colne Rise. 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 8 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO5 7EH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 21 Colne Rise 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.
