Overview

About 29 Birchfield Road

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

29 Birchfield Road is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Northampton (NN1 4RF). It has a recorded floor area of 166 m² (around 1787 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since August 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 £325,000 sits 238.5% above the 1999 sale of £96,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£54/sq ft) was about 59.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: HMO conversion approved in 2013. Past consents include HMO conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 166 m² it's 27.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (130 m² median across 26 EPCs).
