Overview

About 3 Burke Close

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

3 Burke Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Ipswich (IP1 6NW). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since May 2009. Between certificates, main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since August 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 £209,000 sits 81.7% above the 2009 sale of £115,000. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs).
