Overview

About 40 California Crescent

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

40 California Crescent is a two-bedroom detached house in California, Great Yarmouth, Great Yarmouth (NR29 3QP). It has a recorded floor area of 147 m² (around 1582 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2016) returns a high B (score 86), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. When first surveyed in August 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 4 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. Main heating runs on electricity: electricity, unspecified tariff. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.

Held since October 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 40 California Crescent is modelled from its 147 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NR29 3QP. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 40 California Crescent. 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 40 California Crescent was lodged in February 2016 at band B and expired in February 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 40 California Crescent. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 5 schools and 0 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NR29 3QP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
40 California Crescent is in council tax band A. 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.
