About 20 Boston Road
20 Boston Road is a semi-detached house in Ipswich (IP4 4EQ). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since March 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £174,000 sits 351.9% above the 1997 sale of £38,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£54/sq ft) was about 63.8% below the postcode norm.
