About 42 Pentire Avenue
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
42 Pentire Avenue is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Southampton (SO15 7RS). It has a recorded floor area of 158 m² (around 1701 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 5 certificates since August 2011. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.
One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2013. Past consents include an extension and subdivision, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 158 m² it's 23% larger than the typical home in the postcode (128 m² median across 18 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 83% of similar EPCs). Across 2015–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.3% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£341/sq ft) was about 30.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £579,995 in April 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 42 Pentire Avenue is modelled from its 158 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SO15 7RS. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 42 Pentire Avenue. 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 42 Pentire Avenue was lodged in September 2014 at band C and expired in September 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 5 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 42 Pentire Avenue. 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 34 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SO15 7RS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 42 Pentire Avenue 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.
