About 11 The Wolsey Apartments
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
11 The Wolsey Apartments is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Ipswich (IP4 1BF). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 945 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2010) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 88 m² the property is well over the postcode median (35 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £153,000 is 22.4% above the 2011 sale price.
