Overview

About 7 Green Close

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

7 Green Close is a two-bedroom detached house in Drinkstone, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP30 9TE). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2012) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from September 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Untraded for 29 years, with the last transfer in June 1997. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £275,000 sits 276.7% above the 1997 sale of £73,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£117/sq ft) was about 33% below the postcode norm. At 58 m² it sits well below the postcode median (142 m² across 6 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
