Overview

About 2a

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

2a is a two-bedroom detached house in Cranford, Kettering, Kettering (NN14 4AH). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 646 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1991-1995. The latest certificate (March 2019) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in February 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

At 60 m² it sits well below the postcode median (180 m² across 8 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 5 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £313,000 is 27.8% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£379/sq ft) was about 78.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in November 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.

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 2a is modelled from its 60 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in NN14 4AH. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 2a. 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 2a was lodged in March 2019 at band D and is valid until March 2029. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 5 applications are matched to 2a. 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 2 schools and 28 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NN14 4AH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
