About 1 Bell Road
1 Bell Road is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Norwich (NR3 4RA). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 453 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 (42–84 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (38 versus a best of 76). The latest certificate (July 2010) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 51). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
