How the estimate is made
The estimate for 17 Pottergate is modelled from its 51 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NR2 1DS. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

About 17 Pottergate
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
17 Pottergate is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Norwich (NR2 1DS). It has a recorded floor area of 51 m² (around 549 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows an F (score 30), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it C (January 2013); the latest reading is 3 bands lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 63), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on bottled lpg. The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 51 m² this is the 6th smallest of 8 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 33–59 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to D, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (30 versus a best of 65).
Held since January 2009 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 51 m² the property is well over the postcode median (36 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). 5 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2002–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £640,000 is 34.7% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£865/sq ft) was about 280.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 17 Pottergate is modelled from its 51 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NR2 1DS. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 17 Pottergate. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 17 Pottergate was lodged in August 2013 at band F and expired in August 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 5 applications are matched to 17 Pottergate. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 36 schools and 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from NR2 1DS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 17 Pottergate is in council tax band F. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
