About Old School House

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

Old School House is a three-bedroom detached house in Wrentham, Beccles, Beccles (NR34 7LT). It has a recorded floor area of 133 m² (around 1435 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 39). The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.

At 133 m² the property is well over the postcode median (86 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
