About 55 Waterhouse Lane
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
55 Waterhouse Lane is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Southampton (SO15 8QB). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. Tenure is freehold. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (March 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Across 2014–2024, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.3% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£317/sq ft) was about 95.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: September 2024 at £300,000.

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 55 Waterhouse Lane is modelled from its 88 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SO15 8QB. 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 55 Waterhouse Lane. 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 55 Waterhouse Lane was lodged in January 2015 at band E and expired in January 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 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 55 Waterhouse Lane. 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 8QB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 55 Waterhouse Lane is in council tax band C. 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.
