Overview

About 32 Hilltop Crescent

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

32 Hilltop Crescent is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Drayton, Portsmouth, Portsmouth (PO6 1BD). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1292 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2019) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since July 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.
