About 26b
26b is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Rothwell, Kettering, Kettering (NN14 6BQ). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. Tenure is freehold. At 74 m² this is the 8th smallest of 11 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 30–235 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 11 units on file. The latest certificate (December 2020) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). Main heating runs on electricity.
It hasn't traded since May 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time.
