Overview

About 1 Howard Road

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

1 Howard Road is a detached house in Portsmouth (PO2 9PR). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. At 65 m² this is the 32nd smallest of 44 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 57–104 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (December 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs).
