About 48a
48a is a detached house in Emsworth (PO10 7NJ). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since September 2013. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since May 2003, a hold of 23 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £310,000 sits 121.4% above the 2003 sale of £140,000. At 58 m² it sits well below the postcode median (91 m² across 38 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2002.
