Overview

About 1 Park Road

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

1 Park Road is a two-bedroom detached house in Ipswich (IP1 3SS). It has a recorded floor area of 149 m² (around 1604 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1976-1982. The latest certificate (November 2012) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since May 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a balcony. Period features are noted in the property record.

It hasn't traded since June 1995, a hold of 31 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 149 m² the property is well over the postcode median (64 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £481,000 sits 241.1% above the 1995 sale of £141,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£88/sq ft) was about 56.5% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2015.

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 1 Park Road is modelled from its 149 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in IP1 3SS. 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 1 Park Road. 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 1 Park Road was lodged in November 2012 at band D and expired in November 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 1 Park Road. 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 29 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from IP1 3SS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
