About Dovecote House
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Dovecote House is a four-bedroom detached house in Cold Ashby, Northampton, Northampton (NN6 6EN). It has a recorded floor area of 187 m² (around 2009 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 68). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings and attached land beyond the plot.
It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 187 m² the property is well over the postcode median (136 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £888,000 is 22.5% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£361/sq ft) was about 58.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
