Overview

About 56 Melton Road

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

56 Melton Road is a five-bedroom detached house in Wymondham (NR18 0DE). It has a recorded floor area of 186 m² (around 2002 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe and attached land beyond the plot. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in February 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 186 m² the property is well over the postcode median (93 m² across 27 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £498,000 sits 68.8% above the 2013 sale of £295,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£147/sq ft) was about 25.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. 13 years since the last transfer (May 2013).
