Overview

About 150 Ipswich Road

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

150 Ipswich Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Colchester (CO4 0AF). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2019) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since February 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £268,000 sits 106.2% above the 2007 sale of £130,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£157/sq ft) was about 17% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs).
