How the estimate is made
The estimate for 20 Calvert Street is modelled from its 201 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NR3 1BY. 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.

About 20 Calvert Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
20 Calvert Street is a mid-terrace house in Norwich (NR3 1BY). It has a recorded floor area of 201 m² (around 2160 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2009) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 56). The latest certificate is from December 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Across 2004–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £531,000 is 17% below the 2021 sale of £640,000, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. At 201 m² the property is well over the postcode median (61 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sale on file: £640,000 in May 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 20 Calvert Street is modelled from its 201 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NR3 1BY. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 20 Calvert Street. 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 20 Calvert Street was lodged in December 2009 at band E and expired in December 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 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 20 Calvert Street. 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 39 schools and 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from NR3 1BY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 20 Calvert Street is in council tax band C. 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.
