How Charles Close, Norwich prices moved
The chart tracks the median Charles Close, Norwich house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1995 to 2021. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 4 | £110,000 | £244,252 |
| 2000s | 5 | £259,500 | £472,733 |
| 2010s | 5 | £375,000 | £528,750 |
| 2020s | 2 | £407,500 | £416,359 |
The highest yearly median on record for Charles Close, Norwich is £596,250 in 2021; the lowest is £91,250 in 1996. Across the full 27-year record the cash median has moved from £124,000 to £596,250.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £275,339, so the real change over the whole record is +173.6% — about +3.95% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.
Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +75.4% in cash against +24.5% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

The most recent sales
Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Charles Close, Norwich is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 140 | 99.3% | £295,000 | £58,180 – £850,000 |
| Semi-detached | 1 | 0.7% | £129,000 | £129,000 – £129,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Charles Close, Norwich
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 141 freehold — 0.0% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 141 | 100.0% | £295,000 |
A further 1 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.

Living in Charles Close, Norwich
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Broadland, 42.1% of 58,414 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 4.7% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Broadland at £939 a month as of Jun 2026 — £692 for a one-bedroom home and £1,079 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £295,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 3.82% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.
Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of NR12, 1 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 1 violent, 0 burglary, 0 vehicle-related and 0 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 100.0 times quieter.
Against the 131,721 residents the 2021 census counted in Broadland, that is 0.01 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.
A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.

Within Norwich the street ranks 591 of 4381 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £162,500 (+81.5%).

The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Broadland at 8.1 times median local earnings of £37,937 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Charles Close, Norwich?
The median price paid in Charles Close, Norwich across every sale on the register is £295,000. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.
How many homes have sold in Charles Close, Norwich?
141 sales are on record for Charles Close, Norwich, the most recent completing on 28 Nov 2024. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

In cash, the median rose +75.4% between 2006 and 2021. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is +24.5%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Charles Close, Norwich house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £596,250, set in 2021. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.

How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 28 Nov 2024. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
