Overview

About 1 Spring Lane

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

1 Spring Lane is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Alderton, Towcester, Towcester (NN12 7LW). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1184 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.

Today's modelled estimate of £454,000 sits 93.2% above the 2002 sale of £235,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£198/sq ft) was about 24.5% below the postcode norm. At 110 m² it sits well below the postcode median (186 m² across 8 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
