How the estimate is made

The estimate for Poplar House is modelled from its 163 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in IP29 4DJ. 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.

Overview

About Poplar House

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

Poplar House is a detached house in Hartest, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP29 4DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 163 m² (around 1755 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 163 m² the property is well over the postcode median (79 m² across 18 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Last sold in July 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years. Across 1996–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £573,000 is 34.8% above the 2016 sale price.

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 Poplar House is modelled from its 163 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in IP29 4DJ. 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. 2 sales are recorded for Poplar House. 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 Poplar House was lodged in June 2016 at band E and expired in June 2026, 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 Poplar House. 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 9 stops listed are measured in a straight line from IP29 4DJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Poplar House 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.
