About Flat 8
Flat 8 is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bury St Edmunds (IP33 1HQ). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. At 72 m² this is the 4th 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. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (79 versus a worst of 48). The latest certificate (April 2019) shows a C (score 79), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since January 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85).
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in May 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
