About 1 Amberley Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Amberley Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Portsmouth (PO2 0TG). It has a recorded floor area of 137 m² (around 1477 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2011) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). The latest certificate is from November 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
Across 1999–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £416,000 sits 66.4% above the 2012 sale of £250,000. At 137 m² it's 20.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (114 m² median across 26 EPCs). Last sold in June 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
