Overview

About 19 Hilldowns Avenue

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

19 Hilldowns Avenue is a semi-detached house in Portsmouth (PO2 8QZ). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (February 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since May 2003, a hold of 23 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £223,000 sits 85.8% above the 2003 sale of £120,000. At 74 m² it's 18.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (91 m² median across 18 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2007.
