About 16 The Street

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

16 The Street is a three-bedroom detached house in Freckenham, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP28 8HZ). It has a recorded floor area of 141 m² (around 1518 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2013) returns a high B (score 86), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. When first surveyed in November 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 4 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Very Good. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe.

Across 2000–2004, sale prices on this property compounded at 19.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £447,000 sits 80.2% above the 2004 sale of £248,000.
