Overview

About 5 Heath Road

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

5 Heath Road is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Ipswich (IP4 5RZ). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1930-1949. The latest certificate (March 2018) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 66). Main heating runs on electricity.

It hasn't traded since July 1999, a hold of 27 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 £183,000 sits 128.8% above the 1999 sale of £80,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£109/sq ft) was about 38.2% below the postcode norm. At 68 m² it sits well below the postcode median (101 m² across 16 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 5 Heath Road is modelled from its 68 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in IP4 5RZ. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 5 Heath 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 5 Heath Road was lodged in March 2018 at band E and is valid until March 2028. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 4 applications are matched to 5 Heath 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 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from IP4 5RZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
