Overview

About 29 Churchgate Street

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

29 Churchgate Street is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Bury St Edmunds (IP33 1RG). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1184 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2019) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in August 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump.

Held since December 2007 — that's 18 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 £209,000 sits 60.8% above the 2007 sale of £130,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£110/sq ft) was about 49.3% below the postcode norm.
