About 19 Chester Street
19 Chester Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Norwich (NR2 2AY). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2018) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since November 2008. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 3-band jump.
It hasn't traded since January 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £228,000 sits 380% above the 1998 sale of £47,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£59/sq ft) was about 69.7% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs).
