Overview

About 1a

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

1a is a semi-detached house in Ipswich (IP4 1NW). It has a recorded floor area of 103 m² (around 1109 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since February 2002 — that's 24 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £223,000 sits 243.1% above the 2002 sale of £65,000.
