Flat 5, 118 Northgate Street, Bury St Edmunds, IP33 1HQ
About Flat 5
Flat 5 is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Bury St Edmunds (IP33 1HQ). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. At 78 m² this is the 6th 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, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (July 2020) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since March 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Average.
Held since April 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. Today's modelled estimate of £264,000 is 32% above the 2007 sale price.
