Overview

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 £607,000 is 42.5% above the 2014 sale price.
