Overview

About 5 Deacon Road

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

5 Deacon Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Locks Heath, Southampton, Southampton (SO31 6RU). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in October 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 73 m² it sits well below the postcode median (121 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2015–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.6% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£655/sq ft) was about 218.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £515,000 in July 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
