About 4 Moat Yard
4 Moat Yard is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Towcester (NN12 6AD). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2022) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in January 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 55 m² it sits well below the postcode median (82 m² across 56 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 77% of similar EPCs). 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Across 2003–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 28.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £218,000 is 24.6% above the 2007 sale price.
