How the estimate is made
The estimate for 31 Waterloo Road is modelled from its 42 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NR3 1EG. 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 31 Waterloo Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
31 Waterloo Road is a semi-detached house in Norwich (NR3 1EG). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 452 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 42 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (42–86 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 36 units on file. The latest certificate (January 2013) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). The latest certificate is from January 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Across 2008–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £128,000 is 31.6% below the 2022 sale of £187,000, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£414/sq ft) was about 163.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 42 m² it sits well below the postcode median (61 m² across 35 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: change of use to residential refused in 2008. Most recent transfer: May 2022 at £187,000. 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 31 Waterloo Road is modelled from its 42 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NR3 1EG. 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 31 Waterloo Road. 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 31 Waterloo Road was lodged in January 2013 at band D and expired in January 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.

- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 31 Waterloo Road. 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 38 schools and 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from NR3 1EG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 31 Waterloo Road 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.
