Overview

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 £554,000 sits 246.3% 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.
