Overview

About Lime Tree Cottage

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

Lime Tree Cottage is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Bartley, Southampton, Southampton (SO40 2LP). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (October 2020) shows an F (score 34), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 65), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg.

Untraded for 31 years, with the last transfer in October 1995. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £384,000 sits 360.7% above the 1995 sale of £83,350. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£77/sq ft) was about 70.5% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2000. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Lime Tree Cottage is modelled from its 100 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SO40 2LP. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for Lime Tree Cottage. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Lime Tree Cottage was lodged in October 2020 at band F and is valid until October 2030. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to Lime Tree Cottage. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 2 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SO40 2LP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Lime Tree Cottage is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
