Overview

About Flat 2

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

Flat 2 is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Portsmouth (PO2 9HE). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1163 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Average. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.

At 108 m² the property is well over the postcode median (62 m² across 20 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £205,000 is 34.9% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£131/sq ft) was about 22.7% below the postcode norm. Last changed hands 10 years ago, in August 2016.
