Overview

About 2 St Michaels Cottages

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

2 St Michaels Cottages is a mid-terrace house in Norwich (NR5 9AA). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2026) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

It hasn't traded since June 2004, a hold of 22 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £253,000 sits 110.8% above the 2004 sale of £120,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£111/sq ft) was about 42.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
