About Flat 5
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat 5 is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Southampton (SO19 0EL). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2009) returns a high B (score 86), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 68 m² this is the 8th smallest of 10 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 57–82 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the top.
Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 72% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £154,000 is 25.7% above the 2012 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£167/sq ft) was about 18.2% below the postcode norm. 14 years since the last transfer (March 2012).

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 Flat 5 is modelled from its 68 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SO19 0EL. 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. 1 sale is recorded for Flat 5. 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 Flat 5 was lodged in May 2009 at band B and expired in May 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Flat 5. 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 27 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SO19 0EL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Flat 5 is in council tax band A. 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.
