About 12 Dover Road
12 Dover Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Ipswich (IP3 8JQ). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2019) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since May 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump.
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. Across 2001–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £192,000 sits 92% above the 2009 sale of £99,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£131/sq ft) was about 18.4% below the postcode norm.
