Flat 6, 118 Northgate Street, Bury St Edmunds, IP33 1HQ
About Flat 6
Flat 6 is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Bury St Edmunds (IP33 1HQ). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. At 71 m² this is the 3rd 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 bottom. The latest certificate (July 2019) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since August 2009. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
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. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £241,000 is 17.6% above the 2007 sale price.
