Overview

About 1 Water Lane

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

1 Water Lane is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Norwich (NR3 1DD). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. At 90 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 68–102 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (64 versus a best of 82). Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 90 m² the property is well over the postcode median (68 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1995–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.1% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£299/sq ft) was about 53.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £290,000 in July 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
