How the estimate is made

The estimate for 33a is modelled from its 35 m² EPC floor area, its 6 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NR3 1ES. 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.

Overview

About 33a

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

33a is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Norwich (NR3 1ES). It has a recorded floor area of 35 m² (around 377 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 35 m² this is the 4th smallest of 41 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 29–177 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to A, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (June 2026) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since April 2017. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

At 35 m² it sits well below the postcode median (133 m² across 40 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Across 1997–2023, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.5% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£459/sq ft) was about 94.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £173,000 in February 2023.

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 33a is modelled from its 35 m² EPC floor area, its 6 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NR3 1ES. 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. 6 sales are recorded for 33a. 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 33a was lodged in June 2026 at band E and is valid until June 2036. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 33a. 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 1ES, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
33a 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.
