12a, Stracey Road, Norwich, NR1 1EZ
About 12a
12a is an end-of-terrace house in Norwich (NR1 1EZ). It has a recorded floor area of 40 m² (around 431 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2020) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 40 m² this is the 14th smallest of 32 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 17–86 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 32 units on file.
Held since January 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 77% of similar EPCs).
