Overview

About 106 Ipswich Road

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

It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1066 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor and main heating went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump.
