About Apartment 201
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Apartment 201 is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Ipswich (IP3 0BP). It has a recorded floor area of 52 m² (around 560 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. At 52 m² this is the 11th smallest of 34 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 32–101 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 34 units on file. The latest certificate (January 2011) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since September 2005 — that's 21 years off the open market, well above the local norm. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£232/sq ft) was about 18.2% below the postcode norm. At 52 m² it's 23.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (68 m² median across 33 EPCs).

Start your researchHow 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 Apartment 201 is modelled from its 52 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in IP3 0BP. 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. 1 sale is recorded for Apartment 201. 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 Apartment 201 was lodged in January 2011 at band C and expired in January 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Apartment 201. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 29 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from IP3 0BP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Apartment 201 is in council tax band B. 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.
