Get startedAbigail Cottage is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Barton Turf, Norwich, Norwich (NR12 8YT). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2025) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since August 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and main heating dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 98), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Other recorded features include notable views. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
It hasn't traded since March 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£211/sq ft) was about 83.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 62 m² it sits well below the postcode median (112 m² across 8 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007.
