About Grange Farmhouse
Grange Farmhouse is a semi-detached house in Hengrave, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP28 6LX). It has a recorded floor area of 253 m² (around 2723 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (April 2012) shows an F (score 30), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since February 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from April 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 253 m² the property is well over the postcode median (117 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). 9 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 3 refused. Past consents include an extension and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent and conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. Across 2017–2018, sale prices on this property compounded at -1.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £694,000 is 30.7% above the 2018 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£195/sq ft) was about 20.4% below the postcode norm. Sold November 2018 for £531,001.
