Overview

About 18 Embsay Road

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

18 Embsay Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Swanwick, Southampton, Southampton (SO31 7DH). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

Today's modelled estimate of £318,000 sits 50.7% above the 2015 sale of £211,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£233/sq ft) was about 21.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs). On the market in February 2015 and unlisted since — roughly 11 years.
