18 Highgate Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Portsmouth (PO3 5AS). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows a G (score 12), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it F (December 2008); the latest reading is one band lower.
