Overview

About 25 Buxton Drive

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

25 Buxton Drive is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Desborough, Kettering, Kettering (NN14 2UU). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1184 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2014) returns a high B (score 85), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating.

On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 25 Buxton Drive is modelled from its 110 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NN14 2UU. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 25 Buxton Drive. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 25 Buxton Drive was lodged in June 2014 at band B and expired in June 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 25 Buxton Drive. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 4 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NN14 2UU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
25 Buxton Drive is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
