Get started8 Borrowdale Avenue is a five-bedroom detached house in Ipswich (IP4 2TN). It has a recorded floor area of 162 m² (around 1744 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in August 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £591,000 sits 58.7% above the 2009 sale of £372,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£214/sq ft) was about 22.5% below the postcode norm. At 162 m² it's 18.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (137 m² median across 13 EPCs).
