About Rose Farm
Rose Farm is a detached house in Ovington, Thetford, Thetford (IP25 6SA). It has a recorded floor area of 146 m² (around 1572 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (August 2024) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil.
It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £453,000 is 41.6% above the 2007 sale price. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2020.
