Overview

About 8 Fernlea Gardens

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

8 Fernlea Gardens is a three-bedroom detached house in Southampton (SO16 7BJ). It has a recorded floor area of 104 m² (around 1119 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since July 2015. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in February 2013 and unlisted since — roughly 13 years. At 104 m² it's 17.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (126 m² median across 3 EPCs).
