About 55 Evelegh Road
55 Evelegh Road is a semi-detached house in Portsmouth (PO6 1DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 137 m² (around 1476 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2009) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). The latest certificate is from July 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since November 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. Today's modelled estimate of £509,000 sits 53.3% above the 2009 sale of £332,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2023. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
