How the estimate is made
The estimate for 13c is modelled from its 25 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SO15 3HH. 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.

About 13c
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
13c is a semi-detached house in Southampton (SO15 3HH). It has a recorded floor area of 25 m² (around 269 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. At 25 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (25–137 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (September 2023) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in September 2012 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.
At 25 m² it sits well below the postcode median (84 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 73% of similar EPCs). Across 1996–2018, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £107,000 is 42.7% above the 2018 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£279/sq ft) was about 66.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in May 2018, so it's been off the market for around 8 years.

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 13c is modelled from its 25 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SO15 3HH. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 13c. 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 13c was lodged in September 2023 at band C and is valid until September 2033. 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 13c. 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 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 30 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SO15 3HH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 13c 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.
