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 £518,000 sits 69.8% above the 2014 sale of £305,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£180/sq ft) was about 19.5% 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.

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 5 New Lane is modelled from its 157 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO5 9EJ. 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 5 New Lane. 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 5 New Lane was lodged in May 2013 at band E and expired in May 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. 1 application is matched to 5 New Lane. 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 25 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO5 9EJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 5 New Lane 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.
