Overview

About 21 Bolton Lane

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

21 Bolton Lane is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Ipswich (IP4 2BX). It has a recorded floor area of 140 m² (around 1509 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2011) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 57). The latest certificate is from March 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 140 m² it's 18.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (118 m² median across 26 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs). Across 2011–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £361,000 is 20.3% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£199/sq ft) was about 32.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: September 2021 at £300,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2010.
