About 19 Cotton Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
19 Cotton Road is an end-of-terrace house in Portsmouth (PO3 6FL). It has a recorded floor area of 41 m² (around 443 sq ft) and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2009) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since June 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 41 m² it sits well below the postcode median (65 m² across 53 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £240,000 is 20.3% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£451/sq ft) was about 55.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 19 Cotton Road is modelled from its 41 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PO3 6FL. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 19 Cotton Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 19 Cotton Road was lodged in February 2009 at band B and expired in February 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 19 Cotton Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 41 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PO3 6FL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 19 Cotton Road is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
