About 129 High Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
129 High Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Portsmouth (PO1 2HW). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1291 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include a balcony. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (July 2010) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from July 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 24 years, with the last transfer in August 2002. At 120 m² the property is well over the postcode median (80 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs). Across 2000–2002, sale prices on this property compounded at 17.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £540,000 sits 100% above the 2002 sale of £269,995.
