About Clayhill Cottage
Clayhill Cottage is a four-bedroom detached house in Aldham, Ipswich, Ipswich (IP7 6NN). It has a recorded floor area of 173 m² (around 1862 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (February 2025) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. Other recorded features include notable views, a conservatory, outbuildings and attached land beyond the plot. Period features are noted in the property record.
It hasn't traded since October 2000, a hold of 26 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 £719,000 sits 204.7% above the 2000 sale of £236,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
