About Flat A

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

Flat A is a mid-terrace house in Sudbury (CO10 2AG). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 646 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2025) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in January 2012 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average and main heating went from Very Poor to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 66). Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

One historical planning record sits against the property in 2007. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Today's modelled estimate of £134,000 is 43.2% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£145/sq ft) was about 29.6% below the postcode norm. At 60 m² it's 29.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (85 m² median across 29 EPCs). Last sale on file: £93,600 in May 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
