344a, Norwich Road, Ipswich, IP1 4HD
About 344a
344a is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Ipswich (IP1 4HD). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2026) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
It hasn't traded since March 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £230,000 sits 113% above the 2009 sale of £108,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£118/sq ft) was about 17.4% below the postcode norm.
