About Apartment 406
Apartment 406 is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Ipswich (IP3 0BP). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2012) returns a B (score 83), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in December 2008 the rating was C, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Average and main heating went from Very Poor to Poor. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from September 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 56 m² this is the 12th 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, with this unit at the top. Other recorded features include a balcony.
Today's modelled estimate of £137,000 is 10.3% below the 2005 sale of £152,750, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. It hasn't traded since September 2005, a hold of 21 years that's notably long for the area. At 56 m² it's 17.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (68 m² median across 33 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 73% of similar EPCs).
