About 39 Chapel Street
39 Chapel Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Bildeston, Ipswich, Ipswich (IP7 7EP). It has a recorded floor area of 134 m² (around 1445 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2011) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from August 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since April 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2007–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 16.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £488,000 sits 50.2% above the 2008 sale of £325,000. 7 planning records sit against the property, 7 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include a loft conversion and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. At 134 m² it's 18.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (113 m² median across 13 EPCs).
