How the estimate is made
The estimate for 3a is modelled from its 40 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NR7 8AH. 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.

About 3a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3a is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Norwich (NR7 8AH). It has a recorded floor area of 40 m² (around 433 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band A. At 40 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 18 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 40–206 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 18 units on file. The latest certificate (May 2010) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from May 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since November 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across 2004–2010, sale prices on this property compounded at -1.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £117,000 sits 80% above the 2010 sale of £65,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£150/sq ft) was about 23.1% below the postcode norm. At 40 m² it sits well below the postcode median (89 m² across 17 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2011.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 3a is modelled from its 40 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NR7 8AH. 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 3a. 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 3a was lodged in May 2010 at band D and expired in May 2020, 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. 1 application is matched to 3a. 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 22 schools and 0 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NR7 8AH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 3a is in council tax band A. 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.
