About 26 Waverley Road
26 Waverley Road is a mid-terrace house in Southampton (SO15 1JG). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2026) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (September 2011); the latest reading is one band lower.

Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
