Overview

About Farthings

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

Farthings is a detached house in Cockfield, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP30 0LG). It has a recorded floor area of 177 m² (around 1902 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900.

When first surveyed in November 2008 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from July 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). Last sale on file: £433,500 in May 2019. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2016. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1997–2019, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £533,000 is 23% above the 2019 sale price.

How to read this page

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Farthings is modelled from its 177 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in IP30 0LG. 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. 4 sales are recorded for Farthings. 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 Farthings was lodged in July 2011 at band E and expired in July 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to Farthings. 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 1 school and 17 stops listed are measured in a straight line from IP30 0LG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
