Overview

About 20 Donaldson Road

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

20 Donaldson Road is a semi-detached house in Portsmouth (PO6 2SZ). It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1313 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2019) shows a C (score 73). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84).

It hasn't traded since November 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £377,000 sits 90.4% above the 2007 sale of £198,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£151/sq ft) was about 33.2% below the postcode norm. At 122 m² it's 24.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (98 m² median across 19 EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2014.
