About 22 Blackberry Close
22 Blackberry Close is a detached house in Kettering (NN16 9JQ). It has a recorded floor area of 165 m² (around 1776 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since November 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2008. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 165 m² it's 26.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (130 m² median across 11 EPCs). Across 1997–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £408,000 is 38.3% above the 2008 sale price.
