Overview

About 15 Mill Lane

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

15 Mill Lane is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Barrow, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP29 5BS). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 693 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2011) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 60), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from February 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

It hasn't traded since May 2011, a hold of 15 years that's notably long for the area. At 64 m² it sits well below the postcode median (101 m² across 16 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £248,000 sits 56% above the 2011 sale of £159,000.

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 15 Mill Lane is modelled from its 64 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in IP29 5BS. 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 15 Mill Lane. 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 15 Mill Lane was lodged in February 2011 at band F and expired in February 2021, 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 15 Mill Lane. 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 17 stops listed are measured in a straight line from IP29 5BS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
15 Mill Lane is in council tax band B. 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.
