Overview

About 8 Main Street

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

8 Main Street is a five-bedroom detached house in Lowick, Kettering, Kettering (NN14 3BH). It has a recorded floor area of 188 m² (around 2024 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in March 2012 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2013. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 188 m² it's 17.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (160 m² median across 14 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 86% of similar EPCs). Across 2013–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £681,000 is 20.5% above the 2017 sale price.
