Overview

About 81 Gorse Road

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

81 Gorse Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Norwich (NR7 0AZ). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Held since June 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1997–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £296,000 sits 60.9% above the 2008 sale of £184,000. At 100 m² it's 26.6% larger than the typical home in the postcode (79 m² median across 11 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 82% of similar 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 81 Gorse Road is modelled from its 100 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NR7 0AZ. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 81 Gorse 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 81 Gorse Road was lodged in July 2016 at band C and expired in July 2026, 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 81 Gorse 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 21 schools and 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from NR7 0AZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
81 Gorse 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.
