Overview

About 6 Highfield Road

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

6 Highfield Road is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Portsmouth (PO1 1LP). It has a recorded floor area of 103 m² (around 1109 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (June 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since September 2005 — that's 21 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 103 m² the property is well over the postcode median (74 m² across 31 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £250,000 sits 67.8% above the 2005 sale of £148,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£134/sq ft) was about 26.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
