Overview

About Hop House

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

Hop House is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Northampton (NN1 1HW). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 657 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1996-2002. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. At 61 m² this is the 6th smallest of 7 units on EPC record in Hop House, where floor areas span 49–61 m². The latest certificate (January 2025) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (March 2015); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.

At 61 m² it's 17.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (52 m² median across 8 EPCs). Last sold in January 2016, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.

How the estimate is made
The estimate for Hop House is modelled from its 61 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NN1 1HW. 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 Hop House. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
