3 Almshouses is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Nowton, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP29 5LZ). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2013) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since February 2013. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 93), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
