Overview

About 21 Compton Road

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

21 Compton Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Totton, Southampton, Southampton (SO40 3AS). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2012) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 1999–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £256,000 sits 60% above the 2012 sale of £160,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£209/sq ft) was about 31.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 71 m² it sits well below the postcode median (102 m² across 6 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Last sold in September 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property.

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 21 Compton Road is modelled from its 71 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SO40 3AS. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 21 Compton Road. 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 21 Compton Road was lodged in June 2012 at band D and expired in June 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 21 Compton Road. 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 20 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SO40 3AS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
21 Compton Road is in council tax band C. 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.
