Overview

About 8 Hill House Road

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

8 Hill House Road is a seven-bedroom semi-detached house in Norwich (NR1 4BW). It has a recorded floor area of 152 m² (around 1640 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows an F (score 34), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 57), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since September 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 152 m² the property is well over the postcode median (34 m² across 31 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 7 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £315,000 sits 80% above the 2009 sale of £175,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£107/sq ft) was about 39.2% below the postcode norm.
