About Serens Hall
Serens Hall is a six-bedroom detached house in Milden, Ipswich, Ipswich (IP7 7AQ). It has a recorded floor area of 276 m² (around 2975 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (November 2009) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from November 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings and attached land beyond the plot. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
It hasn't traded since September 1996, a hold of 30 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. At 276 m² the property is well over the postcode median (61 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 6 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £1,095,000 sits 284.2% above the 1996 sale of £285,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£96/sq ft) was about 67.9% below the postcode norm. 21 planning records sit against the property, 16 approved, 4 refused. Past consents include an extension, an annexe, partial demolition and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations.
