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.
