About 39b
39b is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Norwich (NR2 3JW). It has a recorded floor area of 114 m² (around 1227 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2022) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in October 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in June 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 114 m² the property is well over the postcode median (38 m² across 31 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £362,000 sits 52.4% above the 2008 sale of £237,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£194/sq ft) was about 21.1% below the postcode norm.
