Overview

About 16 Bentham Way

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

16 Bentham Way is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Swanwick, Southampton, Southampton (SO31 7DG). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 989 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. The home occupies a corner plot and a cul-de-sac position.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in November 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2000–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £340,000 sits 70% above the 2009 sale of £199,950. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2013.
