About 28 Bostock Avenue

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

28 Bostock Avenue is a five-bedroom mid-terrace house in Northampton (NN1 4LW). It has a recorded floor area of 198 m² (around 2131 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 66). The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 198 m² the property is well over the postcode median (131 m² across 37 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs). 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Sold September 2022 for £330,000. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£155/sq ft) was about 17.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2024.
