About The Old School
The Old School is a four-bedroom detached house in Geddington, Kettering, Kettering (NN14 1AJ). It has a recorded floor area of 210 m² (around 2263 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include notable views. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 210 m² the property is well over the postcode median (118 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Most recent transfer: February 2021 at £965,000. Across the public record there are 6 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. Across 1997–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 8% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£426/sq ft) was about 113.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
