Overview

About 5 New Lane

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

5 New Lane is a four-bedroom detached house in Feering, Colchester, Colchester (CO5 9EJ). It has a recorded floor area of 157 m² (around 1690 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views, outbuildings and a loft. Period features are noted in the property record.

At 157 m² the property is well over the postcode median (91 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £510,000 sits 67.2% above the 2014 sale of £305,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£180/sq ft) was about 16.7% 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. Last sold in March 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
