Overview

About 10 Hillcrest Avenue

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

10 Hillcrest Avenue is a four-bedroom detached house in Northampton (NN3 2AB). It has a recorded floor area of 250 m² (around 2691 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2025) shows a C (score 71). When first surveyed in August 2017 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 250 m² the property is well over the postcode median (133 m² across 20 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £699,000 sits 105.6% above the 2017 sale of £340,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£126/sq ft) was about 42.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension, a porch and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in October 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.
