Get startedMansard Cottage is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Copdock, Ipswich, Ipswich (IP8 3HS). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 570 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2025) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since September 2011. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
It hasn't traded since October 1997, a hold of 29 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 £160,000 sits 433.3% above the 1997 sale of £30,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£53/sq ft) was about 78.6% below the postcode norm. At 53 m² it sits well below the postcode median (82 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count.
The EPC has just been inspected, so the rating reflects current condition.
Mansard Cottage's modelled value sits at over four times its earliest registered sale price (1997).
