About West View
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
West View is a two-bedroom detached house in Norwich (NR2 2JB). It has a recorded floor area of 173 m² (around 1864 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (January 2010) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 59). The latest certificate is from January 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since September 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 173 m² the property is well over the postcode median (64 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £565,000 sits 253.1% above the 1997 sale of £160,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£86/sq ft) was about 65.8% below the postcode norm.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 West View is modelled from its 173 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in NR2 2JB. 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 West View. 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 West View was lodged in January 2010 at band E and expired in January 2020, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to West View. 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 34 schools and 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from NR2 2JB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- West View 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.
