3 Penny Street, Portsmouth, PO1 2NH
About 3 Penny Street
3 Penny Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Portsmouth (PO1 2NH). It has a recorded floor area of 141 m² (around 1518 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (May 2025) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80).
Held since November 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 141 m² the property is well over the postcode median (93 m² across 32 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1995–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £616,000 sits 54% above the 2007 sale of £400,000. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2017.
