About 18 Northgate
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
18 Northgate is a five-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Beccles (NR34 9AS). It has a recorded floor area of 266 m² (around 2863 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement. Period features are noted in the property record.
At 266 m² the property is well over the postcode median (96 m² across 39 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 72% of similar EPCs). 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Across 1997–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.1% per year. Last sale on file: £555,000 in November 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
