Overview

About 23 Furnace Cottages

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

23 Furnace Cottages is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Finedon, Wellingborough, Wellingborough (NN9 5NZ). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2022) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. Period features are noted in the property record.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in November 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £181,000 is 44.8% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£211/sq ft) was about 28.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 23 Furnace Cottages is modelled from its 55 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in NN9 5NZ. 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 23 Furnace Cottages. 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 23 Furnace Cottages was lodged in December 2022 at band E and is valid until December 2032. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 23 Furnace Cottages. 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 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 8 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NN9 5NZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
23 Furnace Cottages is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
