Overview

About 16 Blandford Avenue

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

16 Blandford Avenue is a four-bedroom detached house in Kettering (NN16 9AR). It has a recorded floor area of 197 m² (around 2122 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2010) shows an F (score 30), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 43). The latest certificate is from July 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 197 m² the property is well over the postcode median (128 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Last sold in September 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years. Today's modelled estimate of £518,000 is 29.5% above the 2017 sale price.
