About 2 Alver Road

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

2 Alver Road is an end-of-terrace house in Portsmouth (PO1 5HW). It has a recorded floor area of 54 m² (around 584 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2011) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from August 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
