Overview

About 7 Barnwell Road

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

7 Barnwell Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Northampton (NN2 7RP). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (March 2024) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

Held since April 2007 — that's 19 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. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £187,000 sits 58.5% above the 2007 sale of £118,000.
