About Flat 4

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

Flat 4 is an end-of-terrace house in Bury St Edmunds (IP33 1HP). It has a recorded floor area of 47 m² (around 506 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 47 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (47–63 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (42 versus a best of 63). The latest certificate (January 2021) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

At 47 m² it sits well below the postcode median (99 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). On the market in April 2012 and unlisted since — roughly 14 years. Across 1996–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £145,000 is 16% above the 2012 sale price.
