Overview

About 40 Colber Lane

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

40 Colber Lane is a semi-detached house in Bishop Thornton, Harrogate, Harrogate (HG3 3JR). It has a recorded floor area of 134 m² (around 1445 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since December 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £468,000 is 31.8% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£246/sq ft) was about 35.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 134 m² it's 15.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (159 m² median across 19 EPCs).

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 40 Colber Lane is modelled from its 134 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HG3 3JR. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 40 Colber 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 40 Colber Lane was lodged in August 2009 at band D and expired in August 2019, 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. None is matched to 40 Colber 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 1 school and 10 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HG3 3JR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
40 Colber Lane 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.
