About 7 Bankside
7 Bankside is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Northampton (NN2 7NG). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2026) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in November 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since.

The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
