Overview

About 20 Bridport Avenue

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

20 Bridport Avenue is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Ipswich (IP3 8QA). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2010) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since May 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £282,000 sits 65.9% above the 2010 sale of £169,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£243/sq ft) was about 18.7% below the postcode norm. At 65 m² it's 18.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (80 m² median across 12 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs).
