About 36 Northgate Street
36 Northgate Street is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Bury St Edmunds (IP33 1HY). It has a recorded floor area of 186 m² (around 2002 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2019) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since July 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump.
Untraded for 16 years, with the last transfer in December 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 186 m² the property is well over the postcode median (75 m² across 32 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £516,000 sits 87.6% above the 2009 sale of £275,000. One planning record on file: partial demolition approved in 2015. Past consents include partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
