About Flat 1
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat 1 is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Northampton (NN2 6BT). It has a recorded floor area of 25 m² (around 269 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 25 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (25–40 m²). The building's EPC ratings span G to D across 4 units on file. Other recorded features include a basement. The latest certificate (April 2023) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
At 25 m² it sits well below the postcode median (42 m² across 38 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 84% of similar EPCs). Most recent transfer: April 2021 at £75,000. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. Across 2003–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £101,000 is 34.7% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£279/sq ft) was about 181.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2002.

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 Flat 1 is modelled from its 25 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NN2 6BT. 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. 4 sales are recorded for Flat 1. 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 Flat 1 was lodged in April 2023 at band E and is valid until April 2033. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to Flat 1. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 31 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NN2 6BT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
