About 7 Cresslands Lane
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
7 Cresslands Lane is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Hawkedon, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP29 4NW). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1066 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 102), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in June 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 16.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £297,000 sits 51.5% above the 2007 sale of £196,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£184/sq ft) was about 18.8% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs).
