How the estimate is made
The estimate for 197b is modelled from its 33 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SO19 2NY. 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.

About 197b
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
197b is a semi-detached house in Southampton (SO19 2NY). It has a recorded floor area of 33 m² (around 355 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 33 m² this is the 7th smallest of 67 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 12–164 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (39 versus a best of 83). The latest certificate (August 2013) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 33 m² it sits well below the postcode median (52 m² across 66 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs).

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 197b is modelled from its 33 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SO19 2NY. 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. No sale is recorded for 197b, which usually means it hasn't changed hands since 1995 or the sale was not for value. 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 197b was lodged in August 2013 at band E and expired in August 2023, 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 197b. 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 31 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SO19 2NY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 197b 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.
