About Medina
Medina is a two-bedroom detached house in Lingwood, Norwich, Norwich (NR13 4BN). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since May 1998 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £243,000 sits 274.1% above the 1998 sale of £64,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£89/sq ft) was about 22.3% below the postcode norm. At 68 m² it sits well below the postcode median (100 m² across 12 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
