About Apartment 203

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

Apartment 203 is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Ipswich (IP3 0BP). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2023) shows a C (score 79), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (September 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85). Main heating runs on electricity. At 65 m² this is the 14th 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. Other recorded features include a balcony.

Today's modelled estimate of £216,000 is 13.6% below the 2005 sale of £250,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£357/sq ft) was about 27.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Held since September 2005 — that's 21 years off the open market, well above the local norm.
