Overview

About 5 Fen Lane

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

5 Fen Lane is a three-bedroom detached house in King's Lynn (PE32 1LR). It has a recorded floor area of 192 m² (around 2067 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a G (score 10), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it F (April 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to F (score 36). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 192 m² the property is well over the postcode median (125 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019.

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 5 Fen Lane is modelled from its 192 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PE32 1LR. 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 5 Fen Lane. 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 5 Fen Lane was lodged in October 2014 at band G and expired in October 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 5 Fen Lane. 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 3 schools and 0 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PE32 1LR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
5 Fen Lane is in council tax band E. 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.
