About The Old Rectory
The Old Rectory is a detached house in Suffield, Norwich, Norwich (NR11 7EW). It has a recorded floor area of 513 m² (around 5527 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (July 2010) shows an F (score 29), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from July 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since September 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 4 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused, 1 pending. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. An active application for an extension is awaiting a decision. At 513 m² the property is well over the postcode median (152 m² across 8 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). Today's modelled estimate of £1,948,000 sits 55.8% above the 2010 sale of £1,250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£226/sq ft) was about 29.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
