Overview

About 16 Alcombe Road

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

16 Alcombe Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Northampton (NN1 3LF). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since March 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £169,000 sits 302.4% above the 1999 sale of £42,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£52/sq ft) was about 63% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs).
