About 3 Gordon Avenue
3 Gordon Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Southampton (SO14 6WJ). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2019) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since October 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £266,000 sits 66.3% above the 2009 sale of £160,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£236/sq ft) was about 63.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 63 m² it's 25% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (84 m² median across 23 EPCs).
