About 6 Birchfield Crescent

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

6 Birchfield Crescent is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Northampton (NN3 2TG). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A.

The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in March 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2007–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 24.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £205,000 sits 55.3% above the 2008 sale of £132,000.
