About Lane End Cottage
Lane End Cottage is a detached house in Lackford, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP28 6HR). It has a recorded floor area of 164 m² (around 1765 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1983-1990. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil.
