About 4 Paling Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
4 Paling Close is an end-of-terrace house in Wellingborough (NN8 1FD). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 720 sq ft). The latest certificate (July 2009) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from July 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 67 m² this is the 20th smallest of 30 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 48–86 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the top.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in December 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £137,000 sits 476.8% above the 2009 sale of £23,750. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£33/sq ft) was about 63% below the postcode norm. At 67 m² it's 16.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (58 m² median across 29 EPCs).

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 4 Paling Close is modelled from its 67 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in NN8 1FD. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 4 Paling Close. 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 4 Paling Close was lodged in July 2009 at band B and expired in July 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 4 Paling Close. 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 19 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NN8 1FD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
