Overview

About 9 Chafen Road

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

9 Chafen Road is a semi-detached house in Southampton (SO18 1BD). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 892 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2009) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 16 years, with the last transfer in December 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £260,000 sits 136.4% above the 2009 sale of £110,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£123/sq ft) was about 37.2% below the postcode norm. At 83 m² it's 18.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (101 m² median across 24 EPCs).
