About 1 Vale Lane

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

1 Vale Lane is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Kersey, Ipswich, Ipswich (IP7 6EH). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2012) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from September 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
