About 8 Slingsby Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Slingsby Close is a detached house in Portsmouth (PO1 2PD). It has a recorded floor area of 301 m² (around 3240 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 301 m² the property is well over the postcode median (151 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £892,000 sits 256.8% above the 1999 sale of £250,000.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 8 Slingsby Close is modelled from its 301 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PO1 2PD. 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 8 Slingsby Close. 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 8 Slingsby Close was lodged in August 2014 at band D and expired in August 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 8 Slingsby Close. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 28 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PO1 2PD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 8 Slingsby Close is in council tax band G. 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.
