Overview

About 8 Carpathia Drive

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

8 Carpathia Drive is a two-bedroom detached house in Southampton (SO14 3GU). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band A. At 65 m² this is the 27th smallest of 61 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 41–127 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (41 versus a best of 87). The latest certificate (July 2019) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it C (August 2009); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

Today's modelled estimate of £151,000 is 14.7% below the 2006 sale of £177,000, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£253/sq ft) was about 25.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Held since March 2006 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 8 Carpathia Drive is modelled from its 65 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SO14 3GU. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 8 Carpathia Drive. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 8 Carpathia Drive was lodged in July 2019 at band E and is valid until July 2029. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 8 Carpathia Drive. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 19 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 29 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SO14 3GU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
8 Carpathia Drive is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
