How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Mill Lane is modelled from its 111 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in IP7 6LP. 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 1 Mill Lane
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Mill Lane is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Elmsett, Ipswich, Ipswich (IP7 6LP). It has a recorded floor area of 111 m² (around 1195 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Last sold in September 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years. Across 2005–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £348,000 is 33.8% above the 2016 sale price.

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 1 Mill Lane is modelled from its 111 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in IP7 6LP. 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 1 Mill Lane. 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 1 Mill Lane was lodged in March 2016 at band D and expired in March 2026, 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 1 Mill Lane. 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 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 2 schools and 8 stops listed are measured in a straight line from IP7 6LP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1 Mill Lane is in council tax band C. 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.
