About 17 Cambridge Street
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 £473,000 is 15.4% 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 11 years ago, in December 2014.
