Overview

About 1 Buttercup Way

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

1 Buttercup Way is a four-bedroom detached house in Locks Heath, Southampton, Southampton (SO31 6DG). It has a recorded floor area of 133 m² (around 1432 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 133 m² the property is well over the postcode median (100 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Last sold in January 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years. Today's modelled estimate of £470,000 is 47.3% above the 2015 sale price.
