Overview

About 1c

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

1c is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Freckenham, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP28 8JB). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2026) returns a high B (score 88), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. The rating has held steady at B across 2 certificates since November 2012. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and main heating went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to A (score 111). Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.

At 87 m² it sits well below the postcode median (129 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 72% of similar EPCs). Across 2013–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 5% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£332/sq ft) was about 45.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: July 2022 at £311,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 1c is modelled from its 87 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in IP28 8JB. 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 1c. 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 1c was lodged in June 2026 at band B and is valid until June 2036. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 1c. 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 1 school and 5 stops listed are measured in a straight line from IP28 8JB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1c is in council tax band C. 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.
