Overview

About 9 Copelands Road

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

9 Copelands Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Desborough, Kettering, Kettering (NN14 2QF). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in February 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since October 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 85 m² it's 24.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (112 m² median across 23 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs). Across 2002–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £233,000 is 45.6% above the 2008 sale price.
