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 £449,000 sits 340.2% above the 1995 sale of £102,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£91/sq ft) was about 55% 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).
