About 1 Buttermere Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Buttermere Close is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Southampton (SO16 9GL). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in June 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs). Across 2015–2018, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £268,000 is 24.7% above the 2018 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£230/sq ft) was about 55.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in July 2018, so it's been off the market for around 8 years.

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 1 Buttermere Close is modelled from its 87 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SO16 9GL. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 1 Buttermere Close. 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 1 Buttermere Close was lodged in February 2015 at band D and expired in February 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 1 Buttermere Close. 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 28 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SO16 9GL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1 Buttermere Close is in council tax band B. 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.
