About 1 High Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 High Street is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Kelvedon, Colchester, Colchester (CO5 9AG). It has a recorded floor area of 190 m² (around 2045 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since December 2001 — that's 25 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 190 m² the property is well over the postcode median (119 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £541,000 sits 93.2% above the 2001 sale of £280,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£137/sq ft) was about 37.6% below the postcode norm. 8 planning records sit against the property, 6 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 1 High Street is modelled from its 190 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO5 9AG. 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 1 High Street. 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 1 High Street was lodged in March 2013 at band E and expired in March 2023, 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. 8 applications are matched to 1 High Street. 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 2 schools and 22 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO5 9AG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1 High Street 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.
