About 3 Willow Lane

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

3 Willow Lane is a semi-detached house in Great Houghton, Northampton, Northampton (NN4 7AW). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (December 2015); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and main heating dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
