About 20a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
20a is a three-bedroom detached house in Gillingham, Beccles, Beccles (NR34 0LG). It has a recorded floor area of 149 m² (around 1604 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory and outbuildings.
At 149 m² the property is well over the postcode median (106 m² across 26 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Last sold in September 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years. Today's modelled estimate of £374,000 is 33.6% above the 2015 sale price.
