Overview

About 13a

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

13a is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Hadleigh, Ipswich, Ipswich (IP7 5DB). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2012) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe.

At 118 m² the property is well over the postcode median (64 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs). Across 1998–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £290,000 sits 50.6% above the 2012 sale of £192,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£152/sq ft) was about 30.4% below the postcode norm. On the market in November 2012 and unlisted since — roughly 14 years. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property.
