About 9 Browning Avenue
9 Browning Avenue is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Kettering (NN16 8NP). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2015) returns a high B (score 88), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. When first surveyed in June 2012 the rating was C, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Very Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to A (score 98). The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 66 m² it sits well below the postcode median (126 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2001–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £246,000 is 40.6% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£246/sq ft) was about 36.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in July 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
