Overview

About 16 Donaldson Road

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

16 Donaldson Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Portsmouth (PO6 2SZ). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1073 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since March 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 £275,000 sits 96.4% above the 2009 sale of £140,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£130/sq ft) was about 38.2% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2009.
