Overview

About Flat 8

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

Flat 8 is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in West End, Southampton, Southampton (SO18 3RA). It has a recorded floor area of 46 m² (around 495 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2019) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2009. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Good to Poor. Main heating runs on electricity. At 46 m² this is the 4th smallest of 10 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 35–46 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 10 units on file.

Today's modelled estimate of £173,000 is 35.3% below the 2008 sale of £267,500, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£540/sq ft) was about 207.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Held since January 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
