About 16 The Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
16 The Street is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Brettenham, Ipswich, Ipswich (IP7 7QP). It has a recorded floor area of 155 m² (around 1668 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in July 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). Main heating runs on lpg. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
At 155 m² the property is well over the postcode median (105 m² across 28 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 82% of similar EPCs). 4 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, a porch, partial demolition and tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. Last sold in October 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. Across 2010–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 22.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £589,000 is 38.3% above the 2014 sale price.

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 16 The Street is modelled from its 155 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in IP7 7QP. 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 16 The Street. 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 16 The Street was lodged in June 2014 at band D and expired in June 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 4 applications are matched to 16 The Street. 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. Schools and stops are measured in a straight line from IP7 7QP. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 16 The Street is in council tax band D. 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.
