Overview

About Knavesacre

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

Knavesacre is a five-bedroom detached house in Sudbury (CO10 1LA). It has a recorded floor area of 290 m² (around 3122 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (July 2024) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85).

Held since April 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 290 m² the property is well over the postcode median (116 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2005–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 42.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £776,000 is 47.8% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£168/sq ft) was about 20.2% below the postcode norm.
