About Ye Olde Bakehouse
Ye Olde Bakehouse is a three-bedroom detached house in Carbrooke, Thetford, Thetford (IP25 6SW). It has a recorded floor area of 126 m² (around 1356 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2020) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in May 2017 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. Other recorded features include outbuildings. Period features are noted in the property record.
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. At 126 m² it's 23.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (102 m² median across 18 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £386,000 is 43% above the 2007 sale price.
