About 7 Kensington Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
7 Kensington Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Portsmouth (PO2 0EZ). It has a recorded floor area of 104 m² (around 1119 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
