About Church Farm
Church Farm is a seven-bedroom detached house in Barnby, Beccles, Beccles (NR34 7QN). It has a recorded floor area of 474 m² (around 5102 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since June 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 474 m² the property is well over the postcode median (153 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 7 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £918,000 sits 1569.1% above the 1999 sale of £55,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£11/sq ft) was about 91.9% below the postcode norm. 5 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
