About Brooklands
Brooklands is a detached house in Freckenham, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP28 8HY). It has a recorded floor area of 213 m² (around 2297 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 213 m² the property is well over the postcode median (108 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2025. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. Across 2000–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £696,000 is 30.1% above the 2013 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£233/sq ft) was about 18.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in July 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
