About 1 Laurel Farm Cottages
1 Laurel Farm Cottages is a semi-detached house in Aylmerton, Norwich, Norwich (NR11 8QA). It has a recorded floor area of 124 m² (around 1335 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in August 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since January 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £304,000 sits 623.8% above the 1996 sale of £42,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£31/sq ft) was about 85.2% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
