Overview

About 20 Barwell Road

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

20 Barwell Road is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Bury St Edmunds (IP33 1AF). It has a recorded floor area of 183 m² (around 1970 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since May 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 183 m² the property is well over the postcode median (91 m² across 36 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £535,000 sits 55.1% above the 2007 sale of £345,000.
