Flat 3, 118 Northgate Street, Bury St Edmunds, IP33 1HQ
About Flat 3
Flat 3 is an end-of-terrace house in Bury St Edmunds (IP33 1HQ). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2024) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (June 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). At 80 m² this is the 7th smallest of 9 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 47–93 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 9 units on file.
It hasn't traded since October 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2007–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at -2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £255,000 is 30.8% above the 2007 sale price.
