Overview

About 2a

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

2a is a detached house in Calmore, Southampton, Southampton (SO40 2RG). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2012. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 26 years, with the last transfer in March 2000. 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 £446,000 sits 203.4% above the 2000 sale of £147,000. At 79 m² it's 16.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (95 m² median across 11 EPCs).
