36 High Street is a four-bedroom detached house in Emsworth (PO10 7AW). It has a recorded floor area of 128 m² (around 1378 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2025) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Period features are noted in the property record.

Untraded for 30 years, with the last transfer in October 1996. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 128 m² the property is well over the postcode median (71 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £492,000 sits 884% above the 1996 sale of £50,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£36/sq ft) was about 88.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
