Overview

About 21 Cottesbrooke Gardens

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

21 Cottesbrooke Gardens is a four-bedroom detached house in Northampton (NN4 0DE). It has a recorded floor area of 155 m² (around 1668 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (March 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 155 m² the property is well over the postcode median (105 m² across 38 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs). Across 1998–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £407,000 sits 92.9% above the 2012 sale of £211,000. 14 years since the last transfer (October 2012).
