About 18 Earls Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
18 Earls Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Southampton (SO14 6SH). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 749 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B.

Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The latest certificate is from April 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 18 Earls Road is modelled from its 70 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SO14 6SH. 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 18 Earls Road. 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 18 Earls Road was lodged in April 2010 at band C and expired in April 2020, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 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 18 Earls Road. 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 40 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SO14 6SH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 18 Earls Road is in council tax band B. 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.
