Overview

About Rowan Lodge

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

Rowan Lodge is a three-bedroom detached house in Sicklesmere, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP30 0TJ). It has a recorded floor area of 156 m² (around 1679 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
