Overview

About 1 Chelmsford Road

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

1 Chelmsford Road is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Portsmouth (PO2 0JY). It has a recorded floor area of 133 m² (around 1432 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (January 2012); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 133 m² the property is well over the postcode median (96 m² across 26 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs). 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Across 1995–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £376,000 sits 54.7% above the 2014 sale of £243,000. Last sold in March 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2003.
