7 Churchill Avenue is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Northampton (NN3 6NY). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1249 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (October 2011); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since April 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 116 m² the property is well over the postcode median (81 m² across 37 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £288,000 sits 73.5% above the 2007 sale of £166,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£133/sq ft) was about 15.4% below the postcode norm.
