The estimate for Lane End Cottage is modelled from its 164 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in IP28 6HR. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

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. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since April 1999 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £498,000 sits 283.1% above the 1999 sale of £129,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£74/sq ft) was about 61.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
Lane End Cottage's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.
