Overview

About 1a

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

1a is a five-bedroom detached house in Chevington, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP29 5QJ). It has a recorded floor area of 203 m² (around 2185 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (December 2015) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (September 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £638,000 is 45% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£201/sq ft) was about 52.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
