47 Evelyn Crescent, Southampton, SO15 5JF

47 Evelyn Crescent is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Southampton (SO15 5JF). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1163 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in July 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and main heating went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since October 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. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £427,000 is 49.8% above the 2009 sale price.
