Overview

About 277a

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

277a is a semi-detached house in Ipswich (IP1 4BP). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2022) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in September 2018 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. Main heating runs on electricity. At 64 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 3 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 35–73 m².

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in September 2007. 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 £123,000 sits 75.7% above the 2007 sale of £70,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£102/sq ft) was about 80.9% below the postcode norm.
