How the estimate is made
The estimate for 3 Copleston Road is modelled from its 75 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in IP4 5HB. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

About 3 Copleston Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 Copleston Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Ipswich (IP4 5HB). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs). Across 2016–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.4% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£279/sq ft) was about 68.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold August 2021 for £225,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 3 Copleston Road is modelled from its 75 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in IP4 5HB. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 3 Copleston Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 3 Copleston Road was lodged in November 2013 at band E and expired in November 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 3 Copleston Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 21 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from IP4 5HB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 3 Copleston Road is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
