36 Athelstan Road, Southampton, SO19 4DD

36 Athelstan Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Southampton (SO19 4DD). It has a recorded floor area of 17 m² (around 183 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 17 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (17–188 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a C (score 74). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since May 2007 — that's 19 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. At 17 m² it sits well below the postcode median (107 m² across 27 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 74% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2012. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1996–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £257,000 is 13.7% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£1,235/sq ft) was about 533.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
