How the estimate is made
The estimate for 3 Larkhill Rise is modelled from its 116 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in IP4 5WA. 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 Larkhill Rise
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 Larkhill Rise is a detached house in Rushmere St. Andrew, Ipswich, Ipswich (IP4 5WA). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1249 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2012) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). The latest certificate is from February 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since November 1999 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £454,000 sits 192.9% above the 1999 sale of £155,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£124/sq ft) was about 36.1% below the postcode norm. At 116 m² it's 18.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (143 m² median across 20 EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2023.

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 Larkhill Rise is modelled from its 116 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in IP4 5WA. 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 3 Larkhill Rise. 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 Larkhill Rise was lodged in February 2012 at band D and expired in February 2022, 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. 1 application is matched to 3 Larkhill Rise. 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 14 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from IP4 5WA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 3 Larkhill Rise is in council tax band E. 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.
