Overview

About 5 Adams Terrace

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

5 Adams Terrace is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Drayton, Portsmouth, Portsmouth (PO6 2HT). It has a recorded floor area of 48 m² (around 517 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 48 m² it sits well below the postcode median (77 m² across 3 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 1998–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.7% per year.
