Overview

About 5 Pentlow Drive

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

5 Pentlow Drive is a three-bedroom detached house in Cavendish, Sudbury, Sudbury (CO10 8AE). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension, a porch and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). On the market in October 2015 and unlisted since — roughly 11 years. Today's modelled estimate of £368,000 is 47.2% above the 2015 sale price.
