Overview

About 1 West End Cottages

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

1 West End Cottages is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Fornham All Saints, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP28 6LE). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2025) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2011. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since October 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 78 m² the property is well over the postcode median (46 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 17.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £293,000 is 32% above the 2007 sale price.
