Overview

About 7 Lime Farm Way

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

7 Lime Farm Way is a five-bedroom detached house in Great Houghton, Northampton, Northampton (NN4 7AQ). It has a recorded floor area of 182 m² (around 1959 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (January 2023) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good and main heating went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in November 2009. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 182 m² the property is well over the postcode median (115 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £519,000 sits 64.8% above the 2009 sale of £315,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£161/sq ft) was about 27.9% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 7 Lime Farm Way is modelled from its 182 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NN4 7AQ. 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 7 Lime Farm Way. 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 7 Lime Farm Way was lodged in January 2023 at band D and is valid until January 2033. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to 7 Lime Farm Way. 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 2 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NN4 7AQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
7 Lime Farm Way is in council tax band F. 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.
