About 6 Lordswood Gardens
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
6 Lordswood Gardens is a detached house in Southampton (SO16 6RY). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1080 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2009) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from September 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since November 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. Today's modelled estimate of £417,000 sits 66.1% above the 2009 sale of £251,000. At 100 m² it's 23.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (131 m² median across 15 EPCs).
