About This Property

This terraced house is located in IPSWICH, IP1 5ET. The property offers 90m² (969 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is a recently constructed modern home. With an EPC rating of A (92/100), this property is highly energy efficient, placing it in the top tier of UK homes. The oil-fired central heating has poor efficiency. Oil boilers are more expensive to run than gas and have higher carbon emissions. Consider switching to a heat pump (eligible for £7,500 BUS grant) for significant long-term savings. The cavity walls have excellent insulation, contributing significantly to the property's thermal efficiency and helping maintain stable indoor temperatures year-round. The property has good loft insulation, though topping up to the recommended 270mm depth could provide additional energy savings. Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £964, comprising £597 for heating, £248 for hot water, and £119 for lighting. The property last sold in April 2022 for £267,500, with 2 recorded sales in our database.
