Overview

About 50 Waterloo Road

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

50 Waterloo Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Ipswich (IP1 4EA). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2021) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in November 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in April 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £163,000 sits 98.8% above the 2009 sale of £82,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£87/sq ft) was about 33.4% below the postcode norm.
