About 1 Watch House Cottages
1 Watch House Cottages is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Mettingham, Bungay, Bungay (NR35 1TB). It has a recorded floor area of 59 m² (around 635 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2026) returns a B (score 81), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in September 2024 the rating was F, the property has climbed 4 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
