Netley Castle is a property in Netley Abbey, Southampton, Southampton (SO31 5FA). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft) and council tax band G. At 74 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 10 units on EPC record in Netley Castle, where floor areas span 72–239 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 10 units on file. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Main heating runs on electricity: electricity, unspecified tariff.

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 Netley Castle is modelled from its 74 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SO31 5FA. 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 Netley Castle. 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 Netley Castle was lodged in July 2015 at band D and expired in July 2025, 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. 6 applications are matched to Netley Castle. 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 15 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SO31 5FA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Netley Castle is in council tax band G. 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.
