Overview

About 3 Gainsford Road

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

3 Gainsford Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Southampton (SO19 7AS). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2019) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include notable views, a conservatory, a self-contained annexe and a loft.

It hasn't traded since November 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1995–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £316,000 sits 84.8% above the 2008 sale of £171,000. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2021.
