Overview

About Flat 2

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

Flat 2 is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Portsmouth (PO2 0QR). It has a recorded floor area of 38 m² (around 409 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 38 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (38–106 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (February 2020) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since February 2010. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average, lighting went from Average to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

It hasn't traded since November 2000, a hold of 26 years that's notably long for the area. Across 1997–2000, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £116,000 sits 181.2% above the 2000 sale of £41,250. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£101/sq ft) was about 27.5% below the postcode norm. At 38 m² it sits well below the postcode median (100 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).

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 Flat 2 is modelled from its 38 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PO2 0QR. 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. 2 sales are recorded for Flat 2. 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 Flat 2 was lodged in February 2020 at band E and is valid until February 2030. 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 Flat 2. 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 37 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PO2 0QR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Flat 2 is in council tax band A. 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.
