About 5b
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5b is a detached house in Norwich (NR7 0BG). It has a recorded floor area of 127 m² (around 1367 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2018) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in July 2017 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. At 127 m² this is the 8th smallest of 12 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 57–409 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the bottom.
Untraded for 30 years, with the last transfer in July 1996. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 127 m² the property is well over the postcode median (78 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £244,000 sits 388% above the 1996 sale of £50,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£37/sq ft) was about 82.8% below the postcode norm.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 5b is modelled from its 127 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in NR7 0BG. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 5b. 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 5b was lodged in November 2018 at band E and is valid until November 2028. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 5b. 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 29 schools and 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from NR7 0BG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 5b is in council tax band B. 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.
