Overview

About 1 Lawsons Yard

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

1 Lawsons Yard is a two-bedroom detached house in Bury St Edmunds (IP33 1EL). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 842 sq ft) and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.

It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 78 m² the property is well over the postcode median (58 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £395,000 is 17.9% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£398/sq ft) was about 96.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Lawsons Yard is modelled from its 78 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in IP33 1EL. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 1 Lawsons Yard. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1 Lawsons Yard was lodged in January 2009 at band C and expired in January 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 1 Lawsons Yard. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 15 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from IP33 1EL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Lawsons Yard is in council tax band E. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
