Overview

About 9 The Drift

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

9 The Drift is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Culford, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP28 6DR). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (July 2012) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from July 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£246/sq ft) was about 132.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 66 m² it sits well below the postcode median (99 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused.
