Overview

About 17 Testwood Road

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

17 Testwood Road is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Southampton (SO15 8RQ). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2022) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since April 2011. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good.

Held since January 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £210,000 is 15.4% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£245/sq ft) was about 57.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 69 m² it's 23.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (90 m² median across 10 EPCs).
