20 The Croft is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Calmore, Southampton, Southampton (SO40 2GN). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2024) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 5 certificates since December 2013. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
It hasn't traded since February 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 27.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £279,000 sits 74.4% above the 2007 sale of £159,950.
Recommended upgrades on file would lift this property by multiple EPC bands.
