About Tower House
Tower House is an end-of-terrace house in Portsmouth (PO1 2JR). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1130 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since November 2008. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
Held since August 1999 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £814,000 sits 114.2% above the 1999 sale of £380,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£336/sq ft) was about 17.4% below the postcode norm.
