Overview

About 8 Norwich Drive

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

8 Norwich Drive is a semi-detached house in Bury (BL8 1BE). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2026) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since September 2013. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

It hasn't traded since March 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2000–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 24.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £140,000 sits 64.7% above the 2008 sale of £85,000.
