About 5 Ivy Close
5 Ivy Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Rassau, Ebbw Vale, Ebbw Vale (NP23 5SJ). It has a recorded floor area of 195 m² (around 2099 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 195 m² the property is well over the postcode median (115 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £339,000 sits 57.7% above the 2007 sale of £215,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£102/sq ft) was about 30.7% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2019.
