Overview

About 26 Strode Road

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

26 Strode Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Portsmouth (PO2 8PY). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since March 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and window efficiency went from Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Most recent transfer: January 2021 at £173,000. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. Across 2000–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £220,000 is 27.2% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£211/sq ft) was about 36.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
