About 1 Anchor Cottages
1 Anchor Cottages is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bungay (NR35 1TA). It has a recorded floor area of 115 m² (around 1238 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in February 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average, lighting went from Average to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 99), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 2001, a hold of 25 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £273,000 sits 250% above the 2001 sale of £78,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£63/sq ft) was about 51% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 115 m² it's 21.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (146 m² median across 4 EPCs).
