About 248 Dereham Road
248 Dereham Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in New Costessey, Norwich, Norwich (NR5 0SN). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe. The latest certificate (November 2016) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83).
It hasn't traded since January 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 102 m² the property is well over the postcode median (52 m² across 49 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £305,000 sits 75.3% above the 2008 sale of £174,000.
