About 7 Bembridge Close
7 Bembridge Close is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Southampton (SO16 3EL). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 802 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2008) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 67), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from December 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since April 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 1998–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £212,000 sits 67.6% above the 2009 sale of £126,500.
