About Bridewell House
Bridewell House is a six-bedroom detached house in Clare, Sudbury, Sudbury (CO10 8QD). It has a recorded floor area of 426 m² (around 4585 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (March 2012) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The latest certificate is from March 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since March 2007 — that's 19 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 426 m² the property is well over the postcode median (60 m² across 29 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 83% of similar EPCs). 6 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £985,000 sits 103.1% above the 2007 sale of £485,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£106/sq ft) was about 55.5% below the postcode norm. 4 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, a porch and an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
