Overview

About 18 Meadow Close

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

18 Meadow Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Felsham, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP30 0QS). It has a recorded floor area of 147 m² (around 1582 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2021) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since July 2011. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil.

It hasn't traded since July 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 147 m² it's 21.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (121 m² median across 16 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £465,000 is 45.8% above the 2007 sale price.
