Overview

About 17 Great Ground Walk

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

17 Great Ground Walk is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Northampton (NN4 5BB). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2019) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since September 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2000–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £286,000 sits 59.8% above the 2008 sale of £179,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£219/sq ft) was about 55.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs).

How to read this page

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 17 Great Ground Walk is modelled from its 76 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NN4 5BB. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 17 Great Ground Walk. 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 17 Great Ground Walk was lodged in May 2019 at band D and is valid until May 2029. 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 17 Great Ground Walk. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 8 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NN4 5BB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
17 Great Ground Walk is in council tax band D. 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.
