Overview

About 16 Elgin Road

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

16 Elgin Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Portsmouth (PO6 2SU). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
