About The Haven
The Haven is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Roydon, Diss, Diss (IP22 5RX). It has a recorded floor area of 45 m² (around 481 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include notable views. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (August 2010) shows an F (score 22), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from August 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since December 2010, a hold of 15 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £249,000 sits 75.4% above the 2010 sale of £142,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£295/sq ft) was about 52.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 45 m² it sits well below the postcode median (152 m² across 4 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).
