About Flat 2
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat 2 is a mid-terrace house in Northampton (NN1 3PZ). It has a recorded floor area of 27 m² (around 291 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2018) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in April 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 27 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 6 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 26–35 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to D across 6 units on file.
Across 1998–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £107,000 sits 58.5% above the 2022 sale of £67,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£232/sq ft) was about 76.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 27 m² it sits well below the postcode median (88 m² across 53 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 72% of similar EPCs). Sold March 2022 for £67,500. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for Flat 2 is modelled from its 27 m² EPC floor area, its 5 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NN1 3PZ. 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. 5 sales are recorded for Flat 2. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Flat 2 was lodged in August 2018 at band E and is valid until August 2028. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Flat 2. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 32 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NN1 3PZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Flat 2 is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
