About 60 Somers Road
60 Somers Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Southsea (PO5 4PX). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 63 m² this is the 11th smallest of 27 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 40–197 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (January 2026) shows a C (score 71). The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since January 2016. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
It hasn't traded since September 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £170,000 sits 415.2% above the 1997 sale of £33,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£49/sq ft) was about 61.8% below the postcode norm. At 63 m² it's 23.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (82 m² median across 26 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 88% of similar EPCs).
