Overview

About 4 Field Close

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

4 Field Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Drinkstone, Bury St. Edmunds, Bury St Edmunds (IP30 9TT). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1991-1995. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it D (June 2012); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
