Overview

About 196a

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

196a 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 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 61 m² it sits well below the postcode median (101 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Sold June 2020 for £182,000. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. Across 2002–2020, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.8% per year.
