Local market context
16 Gloucester House is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Portsmouth (PO1 3GD). It has a recorded floor area of 7 m² (around 75 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band D. At 7 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (7–86 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 22 units on file. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (February 2020) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since August 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor and main heating went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). Main heating runs on electricity.
Today's modelled estimate of £28,000 is 88.8% below the 2007 sale of £249,750, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£3,315/sq ft) was about 1041.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in April 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 7 m² it sits well below the postcode median (52 m² across 21 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
16 Gloucester House's carbon output is low for the local stock.
