Overview

About 8 Cross Brooks

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

8 Cross Brooks is a four-bedroom detached house in Wootton, Northampton, Northampton (NN4 6AJ). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1249 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since March 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £400,000 sits 325.5% above the 1996 sale of £94,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£75/sq ft) was about 50.3% below the postcode norm. At 116 m² it's 27.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (91 m² median across 31 EPCs).
