12 Rowan Drive is a three-bedroom detached house in King's Lynn (PE32 1UR). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2025) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Held since July 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £311,000 sits 309.2% above the 1997 sale of £76,000. At 82 m² it's 20.6% larger than the typical home in the postcode (68 m² median across 18 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs).
