Overview

About 24 Cottage Gardens

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

24 Cottage Gardens is a four-bedroom detached house in Great Billing, Northampton, Northampton (NN3 9YW). It has a recorded floor area of 149 m² (around 1604 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (May 2012) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in April 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £484,000 is 40.3% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£215/sq ft) was about 27.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 149 m² it's 17.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (181 m² median across 21 EPCs).
