About 2 Cotman Road
2 Cotman Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Norwich (NR1 4AF). It has a recorded floor area of 240 m² (around 2582 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include notable views. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (September 2011) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in November 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor. The latest certificate is from September 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 240 m² the property is well over the postcode median (116 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). Across 1996–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.6% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£399/sq ft) was about 71.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: August 2022 at £1,030,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
