Overview

About 196 Chichester Road

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

196 Chichester Road is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Portsmouth (PO2 0AX). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 657 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in July 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2001–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £207,000 sits 72.5% above the 2014 sale of £120,000. At 61 m² it sits well below the postcode median (101 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Last sold in May 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 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 196 Chichester Road is modelled from its 61 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PO2 0AX. 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 196 Chichester Road. 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 196 Chichester Road was lodged in July 2014 at band D and expired in July 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 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 196 Chichester Road. 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 43 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PO2 0AX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
196 Chichester Road is in council tax band B. 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.
