About 15 Ruskin Road

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

15 Ruskin Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in New Costessey, Norwich, Norwich (NR5 0LL). It has a recorded floor area of 127 m² (around 1369 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2011) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 60). The latest certificate is from November 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Across 2002–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £280,000 sits 56.4% above the 2012 sale of £179,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£131/sq ft) was about 23% below the postcode norm. At 127 m² it's 15.6% larger than the typical home in the postcode (110 m² median across 23 EPCs).

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 15 Ruskin Road is modelled from its 127 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NR5 0LL. 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 15 Ruskin 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 15 Ruskin Road was lodged in November 2011 at band E and expired in November 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 15 Ruskin 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 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 18 schools and 0 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NR5 0LL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
15 Ruskin Road is in council tax band C. 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.
