Overview

About 240a

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

240a is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Portsmouth (PO2 0AU). It has a recorded floor area of 54 m² (around 581 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1930-1949. Tenure is freehold. At 54 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 21 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 40–152 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C, with this unit at the top. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (October 2021) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in October 2019 the rating was F, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Average. Main heating runs on electricity.

At 54 m² it sits well below the postcode median (108 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 70% of similar EPCs). Across 2000–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £202,000 is 15.4% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£301/sq ft) was about 120.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in May 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 240a is modelled from its 54 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PO2 0AU. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 240a. 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 240a was lodged in October 2021 at band C and is valid until October 2031. 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 240a. 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 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 42 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PO2 0AU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
