About 52 Woodlands Road
52 Woodlands Road is a five-bedroom detached house in Irchester, Wellingborough, Wellingborough (NN29 7BU). It has a recorded floor area of 146 m² (around 1572 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a corner plot.
Held since November 1998 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 146 m² the property is well over the postcode median (88 m² across 26 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 77% of similar EPCs). 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £410,000 sits 406.2% above the 1998 sale of £81,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£52/sq ft) was about 74.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2001. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
