Overview

About Rectory Lodge

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

Rectory Lodge is a detached house in Depden, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP29 4BU). It has a recorded floor area of 121 m² (around 1302 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2026) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in December 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). Main heating runs on oil. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

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 Rectory Lodge is modelled from its 121 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in IP29 4BU. 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. 1 sale is recorded for Rectory Lodge. 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 Rectory Lodge was lodged in April 2026 at band D and is valid until April 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 Rectory Lodge. 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. Schools and stops are measured in a straight line from IP29 4BU. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Rectory Lodge is in council tax band E. 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.
