Overview

About 2a

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

2a is a three-bedroom detached house in Northampton (NN3 5DR). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 927 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 64). The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

It hasn't traded since November 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Across 1995–2010, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £300,000 is 46.3% above the 2010 sale price.
