About 5 Ridgeway
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Ridgeway is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Weston Favell, Northampton, Northampton (NN3 3AP). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1060 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2010) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 60). The latest certificate is from July 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since February 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. Today's modelled estimate of £395,000 sits 243.5% above the 1998 sale of £115,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£109/sq ft) was about 47.1% below the postcode norm. At 98 m² it's 23.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (128 m² median across 15 EPCs).

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 5 Ridgeway is modelled from its 98 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in NN3 3AP. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 5 Ridgeway. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 5 Ridgeway was lodged in July 2010 at band E and expired in July 2020, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 5 Ridgeway. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 27 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NN3 3AP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 5 Ridgeway is in council tax band E. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
