About 12 Willow Lane
12 Willow Lane is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Norwich (NR2 1EU). It has a recorded floor area of 150 m² (around 1615 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 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. The latest certificate (May 2021) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump.
At 150 m² the property is well over the postcode median (71 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£227/sq ft) was about 16.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £367,000 in January 2022.
