Northfield House is a five-bedroom detached house in Scothern, Lincoln, Lincoln (LN2 2UP). It has a recorded floor area of 212 m² (around 2282 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows a G (score 1), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 58), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe. Period features are noted in the property record.
At 212 m² the property is well over the postcode median (133 m² across 8 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. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Last sold in September 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years. Today's modelled estimate of £595,000 is 34% above the 2016 sale price.
