Overview

About Touchstones

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

Touchstones is a detached house in Hartest, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP29 4DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 128 m² (around 1380 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1976-1982. The latest certificate (July 2010) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. Main heating runs on oil.

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 Touchstones is modelled from its 128 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale 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. 1 sale is recorded for Touchstones. 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 Touchstones was lodged in July 2010 at band D and expired in July 2020, 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. 1 application is matched to Touchstones. 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.
