Overview

About 18 Well Street

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

18 Well Street is a detached house in Bury St Edmunds (IP33 1EQ). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band A. At 72 m² this is the 13th smallest of 29 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 34–310 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (March 2022) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in December 2008 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good.

It hasn't traded since March 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. Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £157,000 sits 65.3% above the 2009 sale of £95,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£123/sq ft) was about 42.4% below the postcode norm. At 72 m² it sits well below the postcode median (111 m² across 28 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
