How the estimate is made

The estimate for Lark Rise is modelled from its 104 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in IP29 4BY.

Overview

About Lark Rise

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

Lark Rise is a detached house in Depden, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP29 4BY). It has a recorded floor area of 104 m² (around 1119 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows an F (score 27), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 59), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since July 1995, a hold of 31 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £453,000 sits 344.1% above the 1995 sale of £102,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£91/sq ft) was about 55.1% below the postcode norm. At 104 m² it sits well below the postcode median (159 m² across 19 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 84% of similar EPCs).

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 Lark Rise is modelled from its 104 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in IP29 4BY. 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 Lark Rise. 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 Lark Rise was lodged in July 2015 at band F and expired in July 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Lark Rise. 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 4BY. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Lark Rise is in council tax band D. 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.
