Get started31a is a mid-terrace house in Stowmarket (IP14 1AH). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2022) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve.

The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 56 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 5 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 40–108 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom.

Today's modelled estimate of £136,000 is 31.3% below the 2018 sale of £198,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition.
