Overview

About Comely Mead

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

Comely Mead is a four-bedroom detached house in Acton, Sudbury, Sudbury (CO10 0AQ). It has a recorded floor area of 143 m² (around 1538 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2011) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from July 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021. Past consents include an extension, a garage conversion and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in December 2011, so it's been off the market for around 14 years. At 143 m² it's 22.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (185 m² median across 17 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £519,000 is 34.8% above the 2011 sale price.
