About 18 Amberwood Close
18 Amberwood Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Calmore, Southampton, Southampton (SO40 2ST). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1017 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 64). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in May 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2002–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 1.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £341,000 sits 89.4% above the 2009 sale of £180,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£177/sq ft) was about 21.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 95 m² it's 22.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (77 m² median across 15 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs).
