20 The Street is a two-bedroom detached house in Freckenham, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP28 8HZ). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2008) shows an F (score 30), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 46). Main heating runs on oil.
