About 6 Bretton Close
6 Bretton Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Northampton (NN5 6QB). It has a recorded floor area of 49 m² (around 522 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 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 fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1997–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £265,000 sits 82.8% above the 2009 sale of £145,000.
