Overview

About 12 Benyon Gardens

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

12 Benyon Gardens is a three-bedroom detached house in Culford, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP28 6EA). It has a recorded floor area of 93 m² (around 1001 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2018) shows an E (score 54), 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. Period features are noted in the property record. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

It hasn't traded since June 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £350,000 sits 366.7% above the 1996 sale of £75,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£75/sq ft) was about 71.4% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs).
