Overview

About 17 Charles Melrose Close

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

17 Charles Melrose Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Mildenhall, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP28 7BA). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2016) 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 November 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021. Past consents include an extension and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1995–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £290,000 is 38.1% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£232/sq ft) was about 51.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in August 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 17 Charles Melrose Close is modelled from its 84 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in IP28 7BA. 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.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 17 Charles Melrose Close. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 17 Charles Melrose Close was lodged in July 2016 at band D and expired in July 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 17 Charles Melrose Close. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 4 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from IP28 7BA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
17 Charles Melrose Close is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
