About 16a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
16a is a mid-terrace house in Kettering (NN15 7QJ). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1174 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2009) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from July 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since July 2001 — that's 25 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £307,000 sits 155.8% above the 2001 sale of £120,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£102/sq ft) was about 18.8% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2025.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 16a is modelled from its 109 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in NN15 7QJ. 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 16a. 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 16a was lodged in July 2009 at band E and expired in July 2019, 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 16a. 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 21 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NN15 7QJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 16a is in council tax band E. 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.
