About Flat 1
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat 1 is a detached house in Southampton (SO15 5DF). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. At 62 m² this is the 4th smallest of 14 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 39–77 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 6 certificates since February 2016. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 Flat 1 is modelled from its 62 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SO15 5DF. 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 Flat 1. 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 Flat 1 was lodged in February 2026 at band C and is valid until February 2036. 6 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 Flat 1. 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 27 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SO15 5DF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Flat 1 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.
