Overview

About 17 Admiralty Tower

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

17 Admiralty Tower is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Portsmouth (PO1 3GA). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 452 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2022) returns a B (score 81), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was C, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Good to Very Good, lighting went from Poor to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Average; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. Main heating runs on electricity. At 42 m² this is the 10th smallest of 62 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 27–93 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the top. Other recorded features include a balcony.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in June 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 42 m² it sits well below the postcode median (63 m² across 61 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£438/sq ft) was about 23.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
