About 6 Firwood Close
6 Firwood Close is a semi-detached house in Norwich (NR1 4NP). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2015) 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 April 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since July 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. Today's modelled estimate of £249,000 sits 57.1% above the 2009 sale of £158,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£144/sq ft) was about 40.6% below the postcode norm. At 102 m² it's 22.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (83 m² median across 5 EPCs).
