About Babergh House

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

Babergh House is an end-of-terrace house in Sudbury (CO10 2XA). It has a recorded floor area of 20 m² (around 215 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 20 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 7 units on EPC record in Babergh House, where floor areas span 16–34 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since December 2008. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 63). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 20 m² it sits well below the postcode median (39 m² across 16 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2008.
