How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Ash Close is modelled from its 49 m² EPC floor area, its 5 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PO14 1PR. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

About 1 Ash Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Ash Close is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Fareham (PO14 1PR). It has a recorded floor area of 49 m² (around 527 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 49 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (49–109 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 65). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 49 m² it sits well below the postcode median (73 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs). Most recent transfer: August 2023 at £150,000. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. Across 2004–2023, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.4% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£284/sq ft) was about 57.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 1 Ash Close is modelled from its 49 m² EPC floor area, its 5 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PO14 1PR. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 5 sales are recorded for 1 Ash Close. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1 Ash Close was lodged in April 2016 at band E and expired in April 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 1 Ash Close. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 16 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PO14 1PR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1 Ash Close is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
