Overview

About 17 Abbey Road

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

17 Abbey Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wellingborough (NN8 2JW). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2023) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in August 2013 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84).

It hasn't traded since February 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £211,000 sits 157.3% above the 2007 sale of £82,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£93/sq ft) was about 17.5% below the postcode norm.
