Overview

About 160 High Street

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

160 High Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Kelvedon, Colchester, Colchester (CO5 9JD). It has a recorded floor area of 147 m² (around 1582 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. The latest certificate (December 2019) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 63).

Untraded for 30 years, with the last transfer in May 1996. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 147 m² the property is well over the postcode median (60 m² across 24 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £472,000 sits 609.8% above the 1996 sale of £66,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£42/sq ft) was about 80.3% below the postcode norm.

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 160 High Street is modelled from its 147 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO5 9JD. 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 160 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 160 High Street was lodged in December 2019 at band E and is valid until December 2029. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 160 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 23 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CO5 9JD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
160 High Street is in council tax band E. 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.
