About Lankaster
Lankaster is a detached house in Ludham, Great Yarmouth, Great Yarmouth (NR29 5QD). It has a recorded floor area of 173 m² (around 1862 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (September 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
Untraded for 29 years, with the last transfer in September 1997. 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 (105 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £547,000 sits 320.8% above the 1997 sale of £130,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£70/sq ft) was about 71.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
