Overview

About Orchard House

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

Orchard House is a five-bedroom detached house in Redgrave, Diss, Diss (IP22 1RX). It has a recorded floor area of 274 m² (around 2949 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band G. There is a swimming pool on the plot, uncommon for the area. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. The latest certificate (September 2018) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in February 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). Main heating runs on oil.

It hasn't traded since April 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 274 m² the property is well over the postcode median (130 m² across 27 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £776,000 sits 84.8% above the 2009 sale of £420,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£142/sq ft) was about 33.3% below the postcode norm. 5 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
