23 Elder Drive, Daventry, NN11 0XE

23 Elder Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in Daventry (NN11 0XE). It has a recorded floor area of 125 m² (around 1345 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2025) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (December 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

It hasn't traded since April 1998, a hold of 28 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. At 125 m² the property is well over the postcode median (83 m² across 39 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 77% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £401,000 sits 401.3% above the 1998 sale of £80,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£59/sq ft) was about 60.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
