Overview

About Brockwell Bungalow

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

Brockwell Bungalow is a two-bedroom detached house in Botesdale, Diss, Diss (IP22 1BX). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2015) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in March 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

At 71 m² it sits well below the postcode median (168 m² across 5 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2015–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 69.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £279,000 is 31.6% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£277/sq ft) was about 75% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 10 years ago, in April 2016.
