About 7 Abbot Road
7 Abbot Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Bury St Edmunds (IP33 3UA). It has a recorded floor area of 177 m² (around 1910 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2011) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 62).
