About 4 Hillside Terrace
4 Hillside Terrace is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Kettering (NN16 8TJ). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (December 2012); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 3-band jump.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2000–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £143,000 sits 104.3% above the 2013 sale of £70,000. Last sold in April 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
