Overview

About Flat 5

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

Flat 5 is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Ipswich (IP1 4DT). It has a recorded floor area of 39 m² (around 420 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band A. At 39 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (39–42 m²). On EPC score it ranks last in the building (55 versus a best of 67). The latest certificate (October 2022) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since November 2011. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). Main heating runs on electricity.

It hasn't traded since May 2006, a hold of 20 years that's notably long for the area. At 39 m² it sits well below the postcode median (85 m² across 49 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 1996–2006, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £108,000 is 27.1% above the 2006 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£202/sq ft) was about 58.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Flat 5 is modelled from its 39 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in IP1 4DT. 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 Flat 5. 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 Flat 5 was lodged in October 2022 at band D and is valid until October 2032. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Flat 5. 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 25 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from IP1 4DT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Flat 5 is in council tax band A. 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.
