Overview

About 1 Croft Road

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

1 Croft Road is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Portsmouth (PO2 8AX). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2023) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in September 2012 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 91).

Held since December 2008 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £191,000 sits 81.9% above the 2008 sale of £105,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£157/sq ft) was about 17.4% below the postcode norm. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 81% of similar EPCs).
