About 14 Tacket Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
14 Tacket Street is a mid-terrace house in Ipswich (IP4 1AY). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 56 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 5 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 40–104 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (39 versus a best of 55). The latest certificate (July 2012) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 65). The latest certificate is from July 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £138,000 is 23.3% below the 2021 sale of £180,000, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. Most recent transfer: November 2021 at £180,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 14 Tacket Street is modelled from its 56 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in IP4 1AY. 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 14 Tacket Street. 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 14 Tacket Street was lodged in July 2012 at band E and expired in July 2022, 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 14 Tacket Street. 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 28 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from IP4 1AY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 14 Tacket Street is in council tax band A. 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.
