Overview

About 29 Balfour Close

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

29 Balfour Close is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Northampton (NN2 6LL). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band A. At 55 m² this is the 31st smallest of 77 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 40–73 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a C (score 79), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (August 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2006–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.6% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£250/sq ft) was about 57.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold June 2022 for £148,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 29 Balfour Close is modelled from its 55 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NN2 6LL. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 29 Balfour Close. 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 29 Balfour Close was lodged in June 2014 at band C and expired in June 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 29 Balfour Close. 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 30 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NN2 6LL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
29 Balfour Close is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
