Overview

About 38 Fingringhoe Road

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

38 Fingringhoe Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Langenhoe, Colchester, Colchester (CO5 7LB). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 73 m² it sits well below the postcode median (108 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £392,000 is 24.4% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£401/sq ft) was about 119.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in August 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 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 38 Fingringhoe Road is modelled from its 73 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO5 7LB. 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 38 Fingringhoe 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 38 Fingringhoe Road was lodged in March 2014 at band D and expired in March 2024, 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 38 Fingringhoe 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 3 schools and 21 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO5 7LB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
38 Fingringhoe Road 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.
