How the estimate is made
The estimate for 17 Cambridge Street is modelled from its 122 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in NR2 2BA. 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 Cambridge Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
17 Cambridge Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Norwich (NR2 2BA). It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1313 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since March 2014. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
At 122 m² the property is well over the postcode median (88 m² across 36 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension and a basement excavation, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £496,000 is 21% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£312/sq ft) was about 56.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 12 years ago, in December 2014.

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 Cambridge Street is modelled from its 122 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in NR2 2BA. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 17 Cambridge Street. 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 Cambridge Street was lodged in January 2015 at band E and expired in January 2025, 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. 1 application is matched to 17 Cambridge Street. 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 2BA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 17 Cambridge Street is in council tax band C. 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.
